AP Tourism's policy names Budithi brassware and Eluru carpets among the state's craft assets. Budithi points to metalwork, while Eluru carpets are floor textiles; neither is a dance form. Budithi is in the northern coastal Srikakulam cultural belt, and Eluru lies west of the Krishna-Godavari delta corridor. A material test is quick: brass is metal shaped by artisans; a carpet is woven or knotted textile work. If an MCQ calls Budithi a wooden toy centre, it has confused metalwork with Kondapalli or Etikoppaka.

Government promotion lists demonstrate recognised crafts but do not by themselves establish that every named item has a GI registration. When GI status is specifically asked, check the IP India registry entry for that product. This matters because exam compilations sometimes convert an ODOP or tourism mention into an unsupported “GI tag” claim. The geographic pair is still worth learning even when registration is not part of the question: Budithi—northern AP brassware; Eluru—carpets in the central delta-adjacent belt.

Worked example: Budithi brassware and Eluru carpets are separate craft families. One uses metal work, the other a woven floor textile. An image of ornamentation alone can mislead because both may be decorative. Ask first what the object is made from and how it is made; then locate Budithi in the north and Eluru in the Godavari-Krishna region.

Active recall: Match brassware and carpets to Budithi and Eluru. What extra source is needed to claim GI registration?
