Handcrafted Wood Statuettes Pair 'Camel Caravan' Item ID: 2676666041

“My father Motilal, who is now in his 50s, has been in the craft sector for 30 years. I get unending inspiration from him every single day. It’s such a lovely feeling for me to be working with my father. We come from a family of artisans and I aspire to carry forward this traditional art and showcase it to the whole world.

“My family has been involved in handicrafts for generations. I remember my grandfather was a fine wood carver and so are my father and my uncles. So naturally, I developed a keen interest in handicrafts and decided to pursue it as my career too. I did not limit myself to wooden handicrafts only but also extended my expertise in marble handicrafts.

“Today, in this fast-moving world it is very sad to see many ancient, traditional fine art forms dying as people are not aware of them. I aspire to bring these art forms in front of the world so that the people associated with them can be appreciated and encouraged to keep them alive.

“Both I and my father dream of creating beautiful products with a traditional touch so as to keep our tradition alive and at the same time make unique products. Both my father and I have a great passion for wooden carvings, and this is what has brought us this far. We have a workshop where, with our team of artisans, we create amazing products. Working with us provides our team of artisans employment and a bright future, keeping the tradition alive.”

Motilal says that he is so happy to see his son Ayush working full-heartedly to keep this legacy going--a legacy that he and his father started and that he hopes continues for many more generations to come.

“We are thankful to Novica for providing us a platform to showcase our talent and work to the whole world. We hope that Novica customers appreciate our talent and work.”
