Craft is an important sector of the economy in our country. It is a source of livelihood for many people and with a decline in many<br />

craft practices over the years it is essential to realise the power of this sector. <strong>The</strong> artisans do not receive rewards for their talents.<br />

<strong>The</strong> artisans do not realise the importance of their skill. Education to the artisans can enable to express their skills through different<br />

mediums and this could help them in attaining a much respectable place in society.<br />

<strong>Tribal</strong> jewellery holds a special place in the life of tribal people. Many customs and traditions are incomplete without jewellery.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y celebrate many occasions with their jewellery and some jewellery pieces are so significant that the tribal women wear them<br />

till the day she dies. Thus, jewellery is an important entity and the artisans creating those masterpieces are gems of the craft sector.<br />
