The book presents India's rich handcraft tradition and shows its interaction with European cultures. Handcrafts and raw materials have been exported from the Indian subcontinent to Southeast and East Asian countries as well as to Africa and Europe for thousands of years. There are internationally known India connoisseurs and collectors of Indian art in Finland, and the handicrafts presented in the book have been assembled from the Museum of Cultures' own vast inventory of India material and from outstanding private collections.
