Real product names, brands, and prices for the souvenirs worth bringing home — plus exactly where to buy them.

Blue Pottery Decorative Plate

Neerja International

Jaipur's signature ceramic craft — quartz-powder 'pottery' (no clay is used) hand-painted with cobalt-oxide blue floral motifs and fired at low temperature; this 10-inch wall/display plate is a classic mid-range souvenir size, from one of the city's most established makers.

📍 Neerja International showroom, C-Scheme Extension (Bhawani Singh Road), Civil Lines, Jaipur — India's largest blue pottery manufacturer/exporter, founded 1978

Rajasthani Silver Jewelry (Jhumka Earrings)

Johari Bazaar certified jewelers

Oxidized-silver jhumka (bell-shaped) earrings with traditional Rajasthani filigree or enamel (meenakari) work — silver jewelry in Johari Bazaar generally runs ₹500-5,000 depending on weight and craftsmanship; bargaining is expected, but prices at reputable certified shops are less negotiable than at street stalls.

📍 Johari Bazaar (the historic jewelers' bazaar, near Hawa Mahal) — stick to government-certified shops on/near MI Road and ask for a gemological certificate on anything beyond simple silver; The Gem Palace on MI Road (est. 1852, jewelers to the former Jaipur royal family) is the most famous name in the city though its pieces run well above street-shop prices

Hand Block-Print Cotton Stole

Anokhi

A cotton stole/scarf hand-printed using carved wooden blocks in the Sanganeri (fine floral, white-background) or Bagru (indigo/earth-tone, natural-dye) tradition — both are centuries-old printing styles native to villages just outside Jaipur; Anokhi is one of the most established labels selling them at fixed (non-haggled) prices.

📍 Anokhi store (several branches in Jaipur, including C-Scheme) — a well-established hand block-print label; the source villages Sanganer and Bagru, just outside the city, are where Sanganeri/Bagru prints are actually produced and can be visited directly

₹1,200

Leather Jutti (Mojari)

Bapu Bazaar / Johari Bazaar workshops

Flat, backless leather slip-on shoes with embroidered or mirror-work uppers, traditionally worn across Rajasthan — prices in Jaipur range roughly ₹300 for simple synthetic pairs up to ₹2,500+ for hand-embroidered leather with zari/mirror work; a mid-weight embroidered leather pair is a common tourist buy.

📍 Bapu Bazaar and Johari Bazaar (both in the walled Old City) are the main jutti/mojari shopping streets — try on both feet, sizing runs differently from Western shoes

₹800

Rajasthani String Puppet (Kathputli)

Bapu Bazaar street artisans

A traditional hand-carved wooden-headed string puppet dressed in colorful, sequined folk costume — kathputli ('kath' = wood, 'putli' = doll) puppetry is a centuries-old Rajasthani storytelling art; small pairs sold as souvenirs are inexpensive and easy to pack, typically ₹95-250 depending on size and detail.

📍 Street stalls and small handicraft shops in Bapu Bazaar and Johari Bazaar
