The exhibition is organised by the Ministry of Minority Affairs to promote traditional crafts. The stall features polished and hammered copper bottles, along with tall pitchers, dispensers, and decorative vases. Many items are decorated with floral motifs, traditional patterns, and modern graphic designs in red, blue, and gold tones. Some products are made from stainless steel or combine multiple materials. The footage captures dense arrangements, craftsmanship, and a variety of traditional metalware.
