We found this place while wandering along the backstreets of Jaisalmer, and found the owner to be very interesting , and passionate about his subject. The entrance fee is minimal, and he didn't even try to sell us loads of artifacts!

This small museum contains an interesting collection of old user- and art-objects that are typical of Rajasthani culture. The collector and owner Laxmi will show you around personally and explain what the items were (and in some cases are still) used for. Definitely worth a visit!
