Sustainable luxury

From handicraft to fine art.

We are reimagining traditional design and pattern to tell the ancestorial stories of southern Nepal. This sacred geography was visited by Hindu Goddesses and witnessed the birth of three Buddhas including the historic Buddha Shakyamuni, Siddartha Guatam.

Our motifs illustrate stories of women’s relationships to the earth, to one other and to the garden, the representation of life and the universal birthplace.
