The popular image when we talk about a desert is that of a forbidding, empty, harsh space that is devoid of life. Most deserts are so. But then, when we come to the Thar desert of Rajasthan, the narrative changes completely.
Our Thar desert is beautiful, alive, lively and magically endowed with a great variety of crafts and arts.
The Living Desert.in® is a small but very interesting shop at Hotel Arya Niwas Jaipur. We keep a carefully selected display of diverse arts and crafts from Rajasthan, at fixed and fair prices.
The shop has been listed in Lonely Planet and other popular guidebooks about India as a good and fair price place to shop.
You are welcome to visit our shop on your next trip to Jaipur. Arya Niwas is a popular centrally located hotel in Jaipur. Gajendra ji, who manages the shop, is well known among the regulars at Arya Niwas and the Expat community here in Jaipur for his good choice and fairness in transactions.
We can send stuff by courier too and do accept online orders. We don’t sell our goods on Amazon or other online portals, we only sell direct, from us to you.
