Craft & Story
Nine workshops. Forty-one artisans. One standard.
Why we work this way
Named workshops, not vendors
Every piece we ship is made by a workshop we know by name and can put you in touch with. Embroiderers in Bagru, brass casters in Jaipur's Chandpole, potters in Khurja, marble inlay artisans in Makrana — paid per piece, at rates set with them, not for them.
That's also why we don't run a fixed price list: quantity, branding method and packaging change what a fair price looks like, both for you and for the workshop.
The crafts
What we work in
Hand Embroidery
Chain-stitch and appliqué worked by hand in Bagru — used for totes, journals and packaging accents.
Hand Block Printing
Hand-carved teak blocks and natural dyes, printed one length at a time on cotton and linen.
Brass & Copper Casting
Sand-cast in Moradabad and Jaipur's Chandpole, then hand-chased and finished — no two pieces carry identical tool marks.
Wheel-Thrown Ceramic
Thrown one at a time in Khurja, glazed in small batches so colour varies naturally between pieces.
Stone & Brass Inlay
Marble and brass inlay from Makrana workshops, used for boards, coasters and desk pieces.
Hand Wood Carving
Mango wood carved and jaali-cut by hand for lanterns and decorative objects.
Saddle-Stitched Leather
Vegetable-tanned leather, saddle-stitched by hand for desk sets and travel accessories.
Quality & timelines
Made in small batches, on purpose
We don't hold warehouse stock of finished, branded goods — each order is produced against your brief, which is why lead times run 15–25 days depending on craft and quantity. A physical sample is couriered for approval before full production on orders above 100 pieces.
