The Ancient Art of Etikopaka- India's GI-Tagged Lacware Craft
Etikopaka wooden toys are one of India's most treasured GI-tagged (Geographical Indication) handicrafts, made exclusively by artisans of Etikopaka village in Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh. The craft involves hand-turning soft wood on a traditional lathe and finishing with natural lac (shellac) and vegetable dyes, resulting in signature vivid, glossy colours that are 100% eco-friendly and safe for all ages.
Each piece in this musician's set is individually hand-carved and painted, making the complete ensemble a rare and valuable example of collaborative Etikopaka craftsmanship at its finest.

Care Instructions:
Keep your Etikopaka musicians' set away from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve the natural lac finish. Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid washing with water or chemical cleaners, as this may affect the natural dye coating. Handle individual figures with care as the chowki platform and figurines are separate pieces. Display indoors for best longevity and colour retention.
