Unique Ethnic Gifts

Gifting Nest is celebrating World Ethnic Day today i.e. 19th June and envisages a world held together by its roots- a world that has reverence for its heritage, civilization, anthropology, art, craft and culture. By celebrating this day, we are getting an opportunity to go back to our roots, take pride in our rich ethnic arts and crafts and spread awareness about the skilled artisans who are the custodians of India’s age-old arts and culture.

With a profound thought of bridging the wide gulf between skilled artisans scattered over different states, cities and villages and buyers who love everything traditional, Gifting Nest has created a small treasury of handpicked masterpieces. So when you think of traditional Indian gifting ideas or unique ethnic gifts, this little nest never fails to enchant you.

So as we celebrate the cultures of different countries together on a single day today, let us celebrate India’s diversity, ethnicity and uniqueness that are reflected in our products.

ETHNIC GIFT IDEA #1 - BRIGHT YELLOW BIDAAI FRAME

The human element that comes into the picture makes ethnic, handcrafted articles the most unforgettable gifts. A handmade gift with its rustic, unfinished and exquisite look becomes more of an artefact and less of a gift. It brings out a story of its heritage, the unique form of Indian art that is used to create it and the region that it was made in.

ETHNIC GIFT IDEA #2 - GREEN KASHMIRI CANDLE STAND

Travel to the picturesque land of Kashmir and you’ll realize that this paradise valley is not only home to a vast cultural and ethnic diversity but a preserver of the myriad arts and crafts that have been carefully nurtured for centuries. Kashmiri artifacts are famous for its intricacy and affluent art. This candle stand from our collection is one such exclusive piece handcrafted by skilled artisans in Kashmir. A perfect gift, this candle stand will light up a room with its sophistication and ethnic composition.

ETHNIC GIFT IDEA #3 - BELL-SHAPED BRASS BOX

Traditional brass metal work is probably five hundred years old and includes the skill and creativity of master craftsmen originating from Moradabad, a city popularly known as Pital Nagri, ("Brass City"). Gifting yourself or a friend an antique-styled bell-shaped brass box will highlight the style of a home by adding an ethnic charisma to it. Carved in beautiful motifs, this ethnic gift will make for the most adored article in your collection and a perfect home for your small treasures and trinkets.

ETHNIC GIFT IDEA #4 - JUTE-WARLI BASKET

Warli art is a beautiful folk art of Maharashtra, traditionally created by the tribal women. This ethnic art has been skillfully captured in this vibrant basket. Made from twisted twine and jute, painted over with colourful Warli motifs, this is a fusion of western and Maharashtrian art. Brightening up a workstation was never so easy! Gift this to your friends and they’ll love to use it for their essential stationary, cosmetics, important notes or as a newspaper holder or a small pretty pot for artificial flowers.

Gifting Nest is a small world full of ethnic inspirations. And with the World Ethnic Day celebrations you can expect more articles in our nest.
