The traditional Talai aati Bommai comes in a pair called Raja and Rani (King and Queen). The specialty of these typical dolls is that the doll shakes when it is tapped and comes to its normal upright position. This happens due to heavy clay base of doll. The Products include mostly Human figures, images of gods and goddesses. Some other products consist/depict scenes from village life as well as ritual processions. The idols of Raja Rani, bride and bride groom are most popular ones among all products. These Talai aati Bommais are highly demanded in October during Dasara festival as they are elaborately exhibited in every house.
