About Vendor

This is an independently established initiative, founded in 2015 by a passionate collector and cultural enthusiast. His deep interest in gathering rural artifacts and archaeological relics began as early as 1964, when he was just 10 years old. Over the years, the collection has steadily grown through travels, contributions, and acquisitions from village markets and field explorations across Meghalaya.
