Indian Industries, founded in 1945 is the oldest handicrafts shop in Fort Cochin and Mattancherry. Functioning from a 400 year old Dutch building, this shop has seen it all; from the sleepy one horse town that Fort Cochin once was to the bustling tourist spot that is today. Though the streets and surroundings have witnessed umpteen changes, Indian Industries by and large remains the same. It’s a store where time has not spoilt nor changed things despite the sea of change seen all around. Shopping is never a hassle or a chore here, but on the contrary a pleasure, as one can browse leisurely. Our visitors' book and press write ups bear testimony to the rave reviews we have received through the years from those who have visited us.The shops sells silver, stone, white metal and camel bone jewelery; wooden and brass figures; cloth paper machie, laq and leather hangings; life like rose wood elephants; antique finish goods; bell metal and brass wares; furniture and screen; bags, purses and pouches, wooden toys, souvenirs, trinkets and lots more.

An unique Showroom for Antiques, Curios & Furniture, showcasing the rich heritage of India.
This place has an exquisite collection of wooden furniture. We lately bought two beds and dining table-chair set from this place. It has been three months since we bought these items and all of them are strong and sturdy even with rough usage. They have multi purpose study table and some fine collections of dressing units all in traditional Kerala style. I would definitely recommend Antique Home Decor as a shopping destination for wooden furniture. The oldest furniture I bought from this shop is a chest of drawers 8 yrs ago. Till date I have no complaints of any sorts. The furniture are termite free and are made of high quality wood. They also have showrooms in Cochin Chennai and Bangalore.
