Happiness is Handmade

Made in India - a small tag you may see on many handicraft products around the world. And what is the thread that binds these beautiful products together? The talent and ability of the craftspeople in India, who create masterpieces handed down to them through generations, inspired by their culture and traditions.

The Needle and Quest handicraft products are a way to preserve, showcase and share the talent of India’s artisans with the world. We have curated a range of contemporary products made from traditional weaving methods while supporting the legacy of India’s oldest craft forms.

Every piece has its own process, fabrics and traditional skills as artisans create magic with their hands. Using natural dyes, hand tools, local materials, making intricate designs and following generational methods, artisans shape products ranging from carpets, textiles, bags to home décor items.

They incorporate different forms of creativity, styles and simple daily motifs to make a piece that is truly unique and exquisite. From block printing on cotton cloth, painstakingly weaving the dhurries with hundreds of threads, carving the blocks for printing to ensuring the quality of the product, the craftsperson works tirelessly to hand you down their art. Each piece tells a story of their commitment, challenges and efforts at preserving traditional mastery.

We aim to support each craftsperson’s skill and create a line of handicrafts that appeal to the changing tastes and preferences. We hope to raise the dignity of these talented artists as we celebrate the textile and craft heritage of India.
