Curated with Love

Small batch, Slow made - in collaboration with Homegrown Small Businesses

I’ve always liked handmade things, their uniqueness, imperfections stand out for me. Indian handlooms, drapes, textiles, embroidery, jewelry – everything that inspires me and speaks to my soul, and the special connection that it forms with the people who make them (artisans, brands, kaarigars) and their craftsmanship. And while I have always collected, celebrated and embraced handmade in every way possible, it was time for me to share this feeling with you. My curations, my learnings, my findings and everything this heart loves and desires. Masala Chai is therefore a reflection and an extension of all that is me and all that my heart longs for.
