The subject themes and inspirations
The tribes such as dhokra are famous for their achievements in metal handicrafts. They are known to create thin figures which have become a signature of them. Long slender figures give their art a level of intricacy that looks very appealing. They have made bell metal products with decorative designs and detailed carvings. These theme subjects of the tribal metal handicrafts range from animals to nature and also mythology. The figure of deities are a favorite theme for the tribal people and offered as a token of gratitude. Grab this lovely piece of handcrafted elephant statue at Tribes India website.
Price is not an issue for art lovers
Most of them earlier used to create these works for personal collections. But due to rising demands in the market, their mindset has shifted from private to commercial. Beautiful pieces of miniaturized animals sell like fire and are loved immensely by the customers. The more prominent statues are sometimes costly due to the cost of raw material. Some of the customers who can afford these statues value these products greatly and treat them like souvenirs.

The modern influence
Despite reaching a high level of fame, the tribal people have suffered some setbacks in their time regarding the monetary constraints which have restricted them to express themselves fully. Over time the decline is not just money oriented; the modern generation is not so passionate about creating and sustaining this art. Influenced by the contemporary culture of the urban world and it has led to a steep decline in the demand for these metal handicrafts.
