The Amrapali Jewels Museum is a fitting tribute to India’s extraordinary history, both ancient and living. From this magnificent collection, The Adornment of Gods thoughtfully curates fifty rare and exquisite antiques, with Devdutt Pattanaik narrating their stories as only he can. Each object is a small but significant part of Indian history, its motifs and materials offering a unique perspective on the country’s cultural heritage. As we look at these pieces, marvelling at the workmanship and skill involved in their creation, Devdutt’s words open our minds to the worlds they hold within.
