BrandArtisanal Abode
Born out of love for the uniqueness of handmade products and respect for Indian craftsmen and their largely untapped artisanal techniques, Artisanal Abode is a young furniture design studio that envisions aligning creativity with craft-based design. What started as a college project for founder Upasana Jain, a graduate from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad and Tisch school of Arts, NYU, New York, has today taken shape as a boutique design house that combines diverse materials, artisanal workmanship with timeless form.At Artisanal Abode we strive to make a mark with our contemporary aesthetic and high-quality production, utilising the largely untapped skills of local artisans and craftsmen in India.To master a craft takes years of practice, patience, and careful nurturing. This in turn creates design that withstands the passage of time. Artisanal Abodes vision is to align creativity with craft-based design. Each creation at Artisanal Abode is soulfully handcrafted, and reflects a refined mood, fusing traditional techniques and skills of production with modern design. Today, Artisanal Abode works with some of the finest craftsmen around the country to reinterpret age-old techniques like Bidriware, Metal Ware, Gold Leafing, Inlay Work, Wood Carving, Hand Quilting and Hand Weaving, to name a few, to create contemporary furniture products. The sheer beauty and history behind such traditional techniques, passed on from generation to generation, lends a unique touch to each piece that we craft at Artisanal Abode. Around each creation, there is a fascinating story to tell.
