Preserving the Art of Channapatna

Channapatna, known as the "Toy Town" of India, has been the heart of wooden toy craftsmanship for centuries. Our father, Sri [Name], learned this art from master artisans and founded Suryodhaya Handicrafts in 1985 with a mission to create toys that are not just playthings but pieces of heritage.

Today, we continue his legacy — combining traditional lacquerware techniques with modern designs. Every toy is hand-turned on lathes, painted with natural dyes, and polished to perfection. We take pride in being one of the few workshops that still practice the full traditional process.

Our products are loved by families, schools, and corporates across India. We believe in sustainability, quality, and the beauty of handmade craft.
