Buying Lac — questions, answered
- Are VedikCraft's Lac pieces hand-painted or prints?
- Every Lac piece is genuinely handmade by a named artisan — one of a kind, never a print or machine copy.
- What does an authentic Lac piece cost?
- Handmade Lac typically ranges from ₹150 to ₹4,000, depending on size, detail and the artisan.
- How do I care for a Lac piece?
- Keep Lac out of prolonged direct sunlight and damp, and dust it gently. Because each piece is handmade from natural materials, slight variations are part of its character.
