handicrafts export target at Rs. 25,000 crore per annum by 2010.

in the west and the developed world. This could work to the benefit of India's more than five million
artisans provided we have the right policy. But nurturing age-old skill amid commercialization might
not be easy. Selling handicrafts is easy but preserving the age-old skill is difficult. History is testimony
to that fact the mass production is inimical to the artisan's skill.
The market too demande diversity. But in the mad rush to produce for the market, the artisan
does not get the time and support for quality and innovation. The design of mass produced items has
been watered down or averaged to a level where idiosyncrasy has almost disappeared, and often is
not valued. Artisanal production is contingent on movement-by-moment decisions, on innovations
In modern times this has given way to rules, standards and procedures. So a number of artisan
have lost the ability to create unique piece in response to varying needs.
The government must identify senior artisans and have them the wherewithal and the time to
