Naturally Auroville - Nungambakkam Shopping

House of Exclusives
Tucked in a quiet corner of the busy Khader Nawaz Khan Road, the Naturally Auroville boutique amazes discerning shoppers to no end. Aesthetically sectioned and brightly lit, there seems to be more space, than actually is.

Handmade BeautiesUncompromising on quality, this boutique has no peers for the handmade stuff like the exquisite range of pottery in various hues, lovely lamp shades, cards and gift bags, sculptures in stone, coasters made of natural dried flowers, brass plates and the Bendi range of flexible human toys. The sheer artistry of these evokes praise from all, with the prices widening your smile.

From Auroville with LoveTalk of the international township of Auroville, at Pondicherry, and can you forget aromatherapy. Well, natural essential oils, fragrant incense sticks, designer candles, insect repellants and a host of herbal health oils fill your shopping bags. One can also savour oranic food stuff, including whole wheat bread, cookies, brownies, jams, yogurt and international cheese.

The garments section throws up a range of handknitted tops, 100% cotton casuals, silk kaftans, trousers and woolen knits displaying the skills of artisans from the villages around Auroville. Trendy silver jewellery and semi precious stones are sure to enthrall ladies.

Stylish AntiquesEuropean-styled furniture carved of rose and teak wood lie polished at the basement. Half-a-century old dressing tables, traditional wooden furniture, clocks in fine finish adorn this gallery. Got the time, don’t miss it.
