Utkalika (Govt. Of Odisha Handicrafts) - Craft store in Bhubaneswar - Khordha, India

We visited this store this month to particularly buy the need wood idol of Lord Jagannath and I was happy with my purchase. I even bought an ikkat cotton saree last minute as they were almost closing. Happy with both the purchases. As such the employees were fairly helpful.

A government owned Business. They Bought the products from the Artists and then sold these to us. The service of these salesmen is very poor. I think they got their salary from the government and this salary does not depend on the quantum of sales. During my purchase the salesman did not move from his seat to show us the product. We have to search for the product of our own. But one can get a large number of collections here and the products are good. Can't comment on the price as I don't know the prices of these products in other stores.

Good handcrafted of odisha. Network issue inside the showroom. The price is normal.

This place has authentic pieces of silver ornaments, textiles, tribal showpieces. The collection is new and trending. It's affordable too. Readymade kurta and blouses are also available along with textile materials. Pattachitra and terracotta are also good. They also have pearl ornaments here.

They have all sorts of stuff for gifting. Be it silver filligree jewellery or Pattachitra painting. All are reasonably priced. You can get decent stuff 100/- onwards that you can use for gifting. Staff is also courteous. 2pm-3pm they have lunch breaks. So avoid that time of the day.

The Utkalika is a treasure trove of local artistry. From intricate textiles to hand-carved artifacts, it showcases rich cultural heritage. Prices are fair, supporting artisans directly. Knowledgeable staff provide insights. A commendable effort in preserving and promoting traditional crafts."

A great place to have authentic odia crafts. Personally I used to like their filigree silver jewellery collection. If you want to get Odisha's saree collection this is a great place to have different kinds of saree. Overall I had a wonderful experience

A government shop with wide variety of sarees and other handicraft works. Sarees price ranging from few hundreds to few thousands of rupees. Great collection of sarees.
