Found these vintage hand fans in the Crafts Museum gallery. Went to meet their craftsmen to only know that nobody from their younger generation is keen on carrying forward this age-old vocation. Have we Indians taken our craft heritage for granted? Why is there apathy towards our second largest industry? . . . . #zardoziwork #madeinindia #handcrafted #sustainablecraft #vintagehandfan #traditionalindiancraft

What is the fate of Indian mastercraftsmen or handiwork? Earlier their entire, extended family included, was putting in 12-16 hours a day earning from zardozi and ari embroidery. Now their next generation refuses to do it as there isn't a stable income from it. Foreigners looking for exquisite work are their only takers which too are few and far between. Today, on visiting Gulzar bhai and his elder sister in Old Delhi I realized the family was grappling with an uncertain future due to machine work and very few patrons of handiwork. . . . . #craftsmuseum #newdelhi #zardoziwork #sustainablecraft #traditionalindiancraft

NICHE LUXURIOUS WINTER FINDS These @tushar_kumar_luxury_cashmere limited edition unisex stoles are made with a wet-felting technique which is an absolute handmade luxury. Their luxe cashmere from China and Mongolia is deliberately kept limited to highlight the au naturale colour of the fibres.
