Handicrafts online

A new e-commerce portal, www.theindiacrafthouse.com, has been launched offering authentic Indian crafts. The products sold on the website are being endorsed by Dastkari Haat Samiti, thus promoting the artisans of India and creating a fair price platform for them.

Shailesh Bishnoi, Director, The India Craft House said, “For all of us at the India Craft House, this is indeed the culmination of a common vision amongst the founding team. What started as an idea to help make a difference to a deserving cause, has today taken shape as a beautiful portal that we hope will bring Indian craft in its most authentic form closer to people globally.”

While Jaya Jaitly, Founder-President of the Dastkari Haat Samiti, an association of Craft practitioners and artisans, dedicated to the cause of the Indian Artisan for over 25 years said, “We have constantly tried to raise the dignity of Indian crafts persons through encouraging excellence, increasing outreach and maintaining strong links with their cultural heritage. Within this context we help them to feel a part of a contemporary and ever changing world. The India Craft House will most certainly help us in our objectives. I welcome their partnership and commitment.”
