On buying a bangle

Coimbatore | Monday | 31st July, 2017

Summary:

(Lac bangles cost ?150 a pair) I watch as 48-year-old Islam Ahmed kneads and twists, pulls and braids lac into a bangle for me. Ahmed is from Jaipur. “When Maharaja Jai Singh built Jaipur, he wanted it to be the cynosure of all eyes. By the end of the day, we make around 200 pairs.”Like in other crafts, the younger generation is not that enthusiastic about learning bangle making..
