Look at any well-loved Indian drawing room and the shelves tell stories: a pair of elephants from a trip, a carved box from a grandparent, a painted bowl bought at a craft fair. Decorative objects are the pieces that make a room look lived in rather than furnished.
Craft traditions across the country work in metal casting, wood carving, stone, papier mache, terracotta and painted lacquer, and each gives a different texture. When choosing, look at finish and weight in the listing, since a heavier piece sits more securely on a shelf and feels more substantial in the hand.
Group decorative objects in odd numbers and mix heights, with a tall piece at the back and smaller ones in front. Leave some empty space between groups. Dust them weekly with a soft brush, and keep painted or lacquered pieces out of strong sunlight so colours do not fade.
