This range encompasses cities such as Dahanu, Talasari, Jawhar, Palghar, Mokhada, and Vikramgad of Palghar district. This tribal art was originated in Maharashtra, where it is still practiced today. 
Warli Art is the worship of Warli Tribes. There are infinite ways & infinite things warli art can be done on & handicrafts is one of them. This art is based on all the basic lifestyles of warli tribe. The collection of handicrafts we have is extremely useful in your day-to-day life. Warli art has its own beliefs, life, customs, traditions & way of living. They pass on their traditions & heritage to the next generations through these artwork & paintings. There is an expression of stories, there is an imagination, thoughts, memories, dreams, etc in warli art. These handicrafts aren't just unique but they'll definitely bring the good vibes along with them.

2. DHOKRA ART



Dhokra (also spelt Dokra) is non–ferrous metal casting using the lost-wax casting technique. This sort of metal casting has been used in India for over 4,000 years and is still used. One of the earliest known lost wax artefacts is the dancing girl of Mohenjo-daro.The product of dhokra artisans are in great demand in domestic and foreign markets because of primitive simplicity,enchanting folk motifs and forceful form

3. SAURA ART


Saura tribal painting is a style of wall mural paintings associated with the Sauda tribals of the state of Odisha in India. These paintings, also called ikons (or ekons) are visually similar to Warli paintings and hold religious signicance for the Sauras.In recent years they have seen a rise in popularity and have appeared as decorative icons on items such as t-shirts, mugs and diaries.

4.GOND ART


Gond art is originated by Gond Tribes in Madhya Pradesh this tribe is also called Koitur. Gond art is popular & expressive form of art among tribal communities & this art is based on their ancient myths, natural objects & folklore. Gond painting art goes beyond their memories & imagination to create paintings. Gond painting has its own way of presenting, artists have to take care of every small element of the painting, its inner-outer line & every dot-dash they make. They uses bright & vivid colours like yellow, red, blue and white. These days due to paucity of natural colours the Gond paintings we see are made by poster colours on canvas, however, traditionally the colours were derived from charcoal, coloured soil, plant sap, mud, fowers, leaves and cow dung.

5. JEWELLERY


Tribal jewellery is one of the most unique and enchanting forms of jewellery in India. The original format of this jewellery design has been preserved by ethnic tribal communities. It is essentially Jewellery made of simple earthy materials like bone, wood, clay, shells and crude metal by tribals. Having an appealing look, it also holds a distinct rustic and earthy charm. The unrened charm of this jewellery is something that lures people quite a bit.

It's a matter of great pride that the Tribal Arts of India are still practised in many places and people have kept it alive today even after so many years.
