About RAJASTHAN: Rajasthan is the largest state
geographically in India, with a rich artistic and heritage.
Its name means the “Country of the Rajputs [Kings]”.
Located in Northwest India, Rajasthan
borders Pakistan with the expansive Thar Desert. Lush tropical forests, however,
cover much of Rajasthan, especially in the region of Jaipur, its capital city.
In ancient times, Rajasthan was designated
as part of the Indus Valley Civilization, officially gaining its current name after
partition in 1949.
Early
rulers patronized the arts here, inviting skilled artisans from throughout
the known world to come to Rajasthan, especially to Jaipur. As a result, it became
a major hub of excellence for crafts, and remains so today. Jewelry from
Rajasthan is among the finest in the world.
