Travel with us on a photographic journey through various crafts at Pinklay.

Handblock Printing ~ Creating Magic One Block at a Time!

At the core of everything we do, hand-block printing shines the brightest. We worship the craft. It's like painting a story, one block at a time. It's almost another worldly, we say it over and over, and it's a blessing that we get to cherish it in our daily lives.

Dabu Printing ~ Labour of Love!

The ancient technique of mud resist dyeing called dabu is our favourite handcraft of all time. Extremely weather-dependent and resource heavy, dabu goes through printing and dyeing several times before the final product is ready.

Hand quilting ~ A Women-first Craft

Our master quilters work with needle, like magic…making those intricate thread patterns. At Pinklay, most of our quilters are women who even though are skilled, due to socio-cultural challenges cannot leave their homes to look for employment, so we take work to them. Pinklay was started with a simple mission ~ to create a socially impactful business and this is one such impact that our quilts make to the lives of many such women.

Textile Design ~ Illustrating Stories

Pinklay prints are hand-illustrated and painted by exceptional painters, illustrators and textile designers. Our prints are thoughtfully created over a period of a few months, look closely every motif has a story to tell.

Pottery ~ The Heart of Pinklay

There is clay in Pin(klay) for a reason, because we love the form, the craft, the wheel and the endless possibilities that can be achieved with it. Our ceramics are handmade by master artisans. Each piece is gourmet. 

Metal Etching ~ Engraving Life into Metal

Our exquisite brass lamps feature parrots, trees, floral jaals and more which are hand etched by master karigars. Each lamp passes 50 skilled karigar hands before making it to our shelves.
