Jaisalmer is renowned for --

• Embroidery
• Rajasthani mirror work
• rugs
• blankets
• old stonework and antiques

Tie-dye and other fabrics are made at the Khadi Gramodyog Bhavan (Seemagram), not too far from the fort. One traveller warns that you should watch out for silver items bought in Jaisalmer as the metal may be adulterated with bronze. In the fort, on the laneway leading up to the Jain temples, is a fascinating shop called the ' Light of the East '. It sells crystal and rare mineral specimens.
