At this workshop in Ghaziabad, India, every piece is a work of generations. Each artisan has mastered a range of techniques and materials. It’s this attention to detail and respect for traditional craftsmanship that sets them apart, creating a rich foundation for innovation.

Working with a wide assortment of materials, these nimble craftsmen work with close to 20 different types of wood, much of which is sourced locally from just outside Delhi. After these beautiful sheets of acacia, teak, white ash, and more arrive at the workshop, it can take about 3 weeks to turn them into a finished work of art. All made start to finish in a fair trade environment.

Founded in 2005, this workshop has grown to support over 70 artisans, most of whom live in the surrounding area with their families. A vital part of this community, this workshop is creating the future of Indian craftsmanship, one masterpiece at a time.
