About Anuschka Anuschka /an-ush-ka / n. like no other. Anuschka™ is a unique creation that blends art and functionality with élan. Art Anuschka™ bags are a feast for the eyes. The colors provide for a very powerful design element in style. The wide range of abstracts and natural scenes depicted in muted colors of all shades and hues transforms each handbag into an object of timeless art. The commercial production of the artwork translates to one article at a time, as the personalized and individual workmanship is an integral part of each creation. The artisans take pride in the creation of every piece and view them as unique works of art, like no other. The rich and supple cowhide is specially created and carefully selected, allowing for the art to age like fine wine while getting enriched and attracting even more compliments. Features By approaching fashion through intelligent creativity and striking the right balance between functionality and art, the painting on each handbag and accessory is qualified ‘wearable art’! The Anuschka™ story doesn’t end with its original art or its fine leather, but simply begins with it. To bring sense to sophistication, Anuschka™ pays attention to the intricate details such as practical features, precise handcrafted workmanship, signature lining, custom made hardware and branded sliders. Whether you are out shopping for groceries on your way back from work or flying overseas to close a business deal, your ability to adapt and react to change is constantly tested. In today’s fast changing world of fashion, your Anuschka™ handbag will reflect your state of mind and support you as you cope with the unexpected! The Founders Back in the early 1980’s when Swapan Basu chanced upon the opportunity to make hand painted accessories, he was quick to seek help from his best friend and life partner, Roma. In 1984, Roma started designing hand painted bags while developing the process and refining the method of painting over the years. Today it is a closely guarded family tradition.

Finding artists During the early days, Roma had to overcome the hurdle of finding capable artists to paint her designs on the handbags. An experienced worker would never agree to spending hours in a factory painting the same design over and over again. Therefore, when faced with the challenge of recruiting talented artists to hand paint handbags individually and in large quantities to meet market demand, Roma set out to hire unemployed and economically challenged young men and women with a basic sense of art and an eagerness to learn. They would be taught leather painting skills that would help provide for an honest living for themselves and their families along with a solid career track at the company. Today, Roma’s success is proven by these very same dedicated artists that are still working with the company and giving back to their communities by recruiting others who are facing the same income challenges in their lives and training them in this new profession as a chance for a better future. Next Generation Designer Roma’s son, Bhaskar, grew up watching his parents working hard to build their business. He spent many summers working with them, watching his mother design and train artists, along with observing his father select the leathers and coordinate the process flow. When it was time for Bhaskar to pursue his college education, he chose to look outside of India in order to get a more global perspective on how businesses were run outside of Asia. He received a degree in Business Administration from Boston University’s School of Management. During his very first year in school, he was asked to write about his career goals in one of his management classes and so he modeled his response based on the decision his father once took earlier in his career to quit his job and get into business. His father’s approach towards ‘working for himself and building a successful and fulfilling business’ left a lasting impression on Bhaskar. Bhaskar dreamt of taking the business started by his parents to greater heights after completing university, and growing it on a global scale across all borders and continents outside of India. In 2000, with Swapan’s assistance, Bhaskar gathered enough funds to start Basu Corporation. Basu Corporation sold its first Anuschka™ handbag in September of that year. Soon Bhaskar started researching the market and learning more about European and American fashion trends. Initially, Anuschka™ defied mainstream fashion norms

and it became clear that the company would have to tap deeper into its creative acumen and provide for a wider array of art designs. Bhaskar inspired his mother to be bold with her designing and also started contributing his own art concepts. Gradually, Anuschka™ started to grow and Bhaskar’s involvement in designing grew deeper. Roma and Bhaskar work as a team and have succeeded in constantly creating exotic and original designs inspired by nature as well as latest trends across the globe. Today, Roma and Bhaskar have over 55 artists working under their guidance and their designs are available in USA, Canada, Bahamas, Great Britain, Australia, Mexico, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Netherlands and Belgium. Care If your hand painted Anuschka™ bag requires cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe over the painted areas. You may also use the Anuschka™ Leather Protector which is a non-silicon based spray which has been specially developed to preserve the rich colors and the suppleness of the leather. Do not use any chemicals or cleaning solutions!
