Crystal Gallery

Udaipur, Rajasthan, India
Royal Opulence of Sajjan Singh: The Crystal Gallery is located within the magnificent Fateh Prakash Palace. This unique collection was ordered by Maharana Sajjan Singh in 1877 from F&C Osler in London. Sadly, the Maharana passed away before the consignment arrived, and the boxes remained unopened f or over 100 years. It was opened to the public in 1994 and is now considered the most premium attraction in Udaipur. The gallery features over 600 items made of pure crystal, including a crystal bed and crystal chairs. Every piece is etched with the Mewar royal crest. It is a symbol of the extreme luxury of the Indian royalty.
