UTENSILS MUSEUM
Surendra Patel, an interior designer by profession, has set up, on the outskirts of Ahmedabad, a quaint rural complex where visitors can savour authentic Gujarati village cuisine, before wandering through the grounds to see a museum devoted to Indian
untensils.
Collected from all over India, the endeavour is to demonstrate the purity of form and shape in these objects of utility. The pot to store water in, utensils to cook and serve in, spoons, rollings pins, a huge vessel in which buttermilk was churned, each object is beautifully conceived and created to prove that beauty lay not only in the large and the splendid but also in the simple objects of everyday use.
The artisan created each piece for a specific purpose and this catered to a person's every need including worship.
