The lacquered wooden toys are traditionally made in a small villages from Karnataka & Andhra Pradesh states.The wood used is Ankudu (Wrightia tinctoria), a local tree which has been largely replanted to face the demand of toys from India and abroad. • Lacquering is done on a lathe, hand or machine operated. For making slender and delicate items, the hand lathe is considered suitable. Dry lac is pressed against the item to be lacquered and then exposed to heat. The wooden base is continually rotated for uniform application. It speaks of the skill of the craftsman as he uses different colors and yet manages to get uniform shine on them. Vegetable dyes are used in coloring instead of lead based dyes. A thick decoction of color is mixed with hot lac and sticks are made similar to those with synthetic dyes
