From a colourful glass lantern made in Jaipur to exquisitely embroidered fabric from the remote villages of Assam, art is being celebrated with great pomp and show at the Sampoorn Santhe, a crafts fair happening at ChitraKala Parishath, Bangalore. At the week-long art exhibition (which ends on 26th June), there are about 140 stalls selling everything under the sun including pots, furniture, jewelry, fabric, metal accents and more. Gathered from across the country, each stall is a unique testament to the culture and language of their respective region. We hung out at this  exhibition to pick  some classy  decor accessories for your home, and boy, did we find some.
