Maati, the Craft Store

Introducing Maati, the Craft Store. Came across this by sheer chance on Facebook and what a wonderful find it's been. Not only do they bring you the best of Indian textiles, block prints, crafts and accessories but also work with producer groups across the country to build sustained market opportunities for artisans based in rural areas.

From apparel in silk and cotton and handloom weaves (from Bhagalpur, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, & Andhra Pradesh) to pottery (from Pondicherry & Maharashtra), baskets (from U.P & Tamil Nadu) to intricate hand embroidery & applique work (from Kutch & Rajasthan), Maati has it all.

Here's a glimpse of some of the beautiful products that Maati has to offer.

Hand woven baskets in vibrant colours from Chettinad
Gorgeous sarees, dupattas and stoles in silk
Beautiful applique cushions from Rajasthan
Ceramic Animals
Teapots, Mugs and Vases from Maharashtra
