Where did the inspiration come from?
Our friends and relatives who live in different parts of the globe are our main source of inspiration. Over the years we have patiently heard them complaining as to how hard it is for them to find few Indian products especially the craft items like the God/Goddess statues for worship, Pooja thalis etc. Thus germinated the idea of starting a platform through which we could deliver the authentic art and craft of India to the doorsteps. Coupled with our passion for art and craft of India, coming up with CraftsfromIndia.in was natural.
We will also be using this powerful medium as a repository of fascinating information on the craftsmen, artists and the various art and crafts of India. By doing so, we will be contributing our bit to promote our rich heritage, culture and tradition.
Indulge in the shopping and delve in the details of the India’s rich heritage at CraftsfromIndia.in.
Who are we?
Ruchi : It’s my sheer passion for art and crafts that has brought me here and this platform has nothing to do with my past experiences. Started my career as a faculty in NIIT, India’s leading Computer Training Institute. In the quest for expanding my horizon, I moved on to Mphasis. Few years down the line I got married and took a break from work to enjoy the marital bliss and to raise my son. In the past 6 years of my married life, I have traveled a lot exploring many parts of India and started a venture called www.podmasti.com with my husband (Dev). CraftsfromIndia.in is our second venture together.
Dev : Given a chance, I would love to be a photographer, painter, sculpture or anything that has artistic bent to it. Fresh out of college with MBA in hand, I was lucky enough to get a job which involved creativity. My first job was that of a web developer. After working for 4 long years, I decided to start my dream company, Strapp Business Solutions. Along side, my thirst for creativity and innovation continued and in 2005, I and my wife came up with a podcasting site which was the first one from Indian IP address. CraftsfromIndia.in is an outlet that would bring together the MBA and creative side of me. CraftsfromIndia.in is something that I am totally passionate about and believe in it completely.
