Nagpur is one of the largest cities in Maharashtra. Proposed as one of the smart cities of India, this region is a strong commercial and political center from the Vidarbha region. The place is also well known for its Nagpur oranges and hence known as the Orange City for its large-scale trading of the fruit widely cultivated in the region. Nagpur was previously known as 'Fanindrapura', a name derived from the word 'Fana' meaning hood of a cobra. The city has many well-known artists showing their creativity.

The tribal lady bottle is an innovative artwork made of a small sauce bottle and white M-SEAL. The product is exclusively developed to recognize the importance of our tribal communities who treasures age-old cultures and ethnicities. The bottle holds the shape of a tribal woman dressed in their tribal attire and jewelry. The reason behind the initiative is to exhibit their culture and, in this way, get more people aware of the Maharashtrian tribes. Mrs. Vaishali H. Kawre is an artisan from Nagpur who preserves this unique art. She is the owner cum trainer at the Creative Craft, Nagpur, who runs the art center for 22 years.
