CLAYMEN

Claymen is a thoughtful collection of clay work that finds beauty in simplicity across a range of functional, dysfunctional and sculptural objects. Founded by Aman Khanna, this talented artist is more than a ceramicist. Trained as a graphic artist and illustrator, Aman is overall, a visual storyteller. He studied and worked in London and after setting up his own design studio Infomen, returned to India to set up another studio, Infonauts, in Delhi. It was not long before Aman began exploring another creative outlet and began working with clay. These objects add aesthetic by taking it away. They are minimal. They are functional. They are simply what they are: a celebration of a style that lives at peace with its own little imperfections. 



THE VINTAGE VOGUE

Charlotte’s objects of desire include a range of minimalist wooden trays, coasters with artful paint speckles, gold leaf accents and soft muted colour palettes. She sources natural materials such as birch wood, locally sourced soft alpaca fibres and linen textiles that complement her simplistic and thoughtful designs.



COPPRE STUDIO

Rashmi Ranade, founder and lead designer at Coppre, is passionate about reinvigorating this heritage Indian craft and so formed a collective with the Tambats to develop a range of contemporary metal homewares. Through this collaboration, Rashmi’s minimal yet functional designs have reintroduced copper back into home decor, and given this ancient Indian craft a new lease of life.

TAKAOKAYA

Takaokaya is a third generation family business that has made its mark in the futon and cushion industry since 1919. Mr Takaoka originally set up a futon workshop and had continued success with supplying his ready made futons to up market Japanese department stores. With each generation the Takaoka’s have continued to refine their craft and further expand into a delightful range of cushions.

Everything about Cousu de Fil Blanc’s collection of soaps, candles and aromatherapy sprays is deeply sensory. From exquisite scents derived from a less-than-usual list of ingredients, to beautifully crafted packaging with signature white thread stitching.

Phoebe and Delia Langdon are the force behind textiles and homewares brand Langdon LTD. Phoebe's background in textile design has led to an exciting range of earthy, boho rugs, cushions and bags that play on colour, texture and natural fibres. 

The sisters love making beautiful things. To translate their playful designs into textiles, they work closely with some of the finest weavers in India.  All of their textiles and accessories are hand dyed and woven by artisans in India using traditional techniques and the finest materials and metallic threads.  

SAFOMASI

Sarah Fotheringham and Maninder Singh, creators of Safomasi, are thrilled to be part of a movement of Delhi brands that are shaking up the ideology of what “made in india” means. Sarah’s background as an artist and illustrator and Manner’s experience in fashion and production, created the perfect unison to develop a unique homewares brand that fostered the strengths of local craftsmanship.
