matsya a journey to traditional Indian crafts. Indian Crafts are some of the most unique and versatile products found anywhere in the world. Age old practices and traditions form expressions in the daily lives, lifestyle and cultural practices of the artisans. Their lives are thus deeply entrenched in their arts and crafts. Matsya is a platform to create awareness about these artisans and their products, their lives, cultures and their commitment to conserve age old traditions. By featuring stories about skills, time and creativity invested by them we highlight how our purchasing choices directly impact the livelihoods of thousands of artisans and the survival of exquisite traditions passed over generations.

matsya a journey to traditional Indian crafts.
Our goal is to showcase the natural beauty and intricate workmanship in Indian arts and crafts. By presenting them in contemporary style and form, we offer original art that all of us can relate to and use innovate. Through this we wish to provide a platform that serves as a reminder of our roots - as a reminder of ‘what we were and therefore are, even today’. To make this platform most effective in terms of achieving its goal, we retail and take corporate orders of an assorted variety of stunning products in addition to displaying innovative uses and designs of traditional crafts.
