About Karwaan
Karwaan – derived from the word caravan- literally translates to company of merchants travelling together for safety.When attached to our organisation, it becomes a journey of artisans and designers embarking on a journey to unleash the potential of the artisans of India.
Karwaan is the journey of Indian artisans, designers & brands who strongly believe in the power of togetherness, of their art, of preserving age-old culture & of staying true to one’s roots. With advancement of technology & Westernisation, the voices and craft of these artists are fading, thus making them scarce and a relic. What if there was a way to nurture this kalaa?
Karwaan is journey of all of us who dream to change the world, one design at a time. To sum it up, we are all about empowerment, sustainability, self-sufficiency, building an identity, mindfulness, and individualism.
