Wood carving appreciation and try-out with Udaipur artisans
Meet wood carvers known for furniture panels and decorative motifs, watch chisels shape sheesham and other hardwoods, then chip a simple pattern on a practice block under guidance.
Carved doors and jharokha details still define Mewar havelis; this session connects palace architecture you see around Udaipur to the hand skills that built them.
For travellers who love texture, tools, and heritage trades—not a full carpentry course, but a respectful, tactile introduction.
