Jaipur is famous for a number of crafts and marble carving is one of them. It has a street named “Khazano ka Rasta” which is purely dedicated to the trade of carved marble products and is a home to all the marble carvers. You can find all kind of marble carvings happening in the small shops there. From a small carved household product to a 20 ft long statue of dietes and popular figures, all are made in the small shops situated on this street.

This marble carving is from “Gator ki Chattriyan”- a royal crematorium for the majestic rulers of Rajasthan. It is a complex of temples and tombs situated on the outskirts of Jaipur. The cenotaphs there are engraved with complex Rajasthani carvings and are the major attraction of the place.

Hope you like the carving and the pictures. Drop down your views in the comments below.
