Our mission is to provide opportunities to those who never had any. We train for free and employ housewives, farmers or housemaids in rural or city outskirts of India.  Along with not having had an opportunity, they also suffer tremendous social barriers to step outside home for work. 

Through free skill-building workshops as well as a lot of time and patience, we train such women to slowly grow from makers, to artisans. For our quality requirements, this often takes 2 to 3 years. 

Each product you purchase from us is made by a woman who has newly acquired these skills. Read more about our story and process

We believe it’s important for everyone to know where their materials come from, and think about where they will go.

All our products are handmade with materials sourced directly from weavers and artisans, and can be composted at the end of their lives to merge into soil.

Washing: Although our materials are colour fast, we recommend soaking your product in warm salt water the first time you wash it. Subsequently, your product can be washed in your washing machine, alongside other clothes, etc. 

Drying: As with most natural fibers, it is recommended to air hang dry to ensure the product retains its form best. 

Ironing: Since jute is a strong fiber, it is easiest to iron when sprayed with water first or with a steam iron.

Materials & crafts:

  • Jute from Bengal: Renowned for its durability and eco-friendliness, jute adds a rustic charm and robustness to our products, making them both sustainable and long-lasting. We line our jute with cotton fabric, not plastic!
  • Ikat from Telangana: This unique dyeing technique offers vibrant patterns and a soft texture, sourced directly from the homes of our weaving partners in Telangana.
  • Ajrakh and Bandhni from Gujarat: Celebrated for its stunning block prints and deep hues, Ajrakh fabric brings a touch of timeless elegance and artistic flair to our collection, directly from artisans in Gujarat.
  • Kantha Embroidery from Bengal: Each piece is adorned with delicate Kantha embroidery, a traditional art form that adds intricate detail and a handcrafted touch. This embroidery not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also tells a story of cultural heritage and skilled artistry.

The basket bottom and side is reinforced. The lining is unattached, so it’s easy to pull out and dust off. Yet it folds up as an easy-ship product!
