Where craft meets cause, and tradition meets transformation.
From Ancestral Hands to Modern Spaces: 50+ Pattachitra Artisans Supported with Pride
Haven Crafts collaborated with local artisans to purchase original Pattachitra paintings. These masterpieces were then brought directly to art lovers and responsible corporates across the country without any middlemen.
By eliminating exploitative intermediaries, we ensured that every artisan received a fair trade price, honouring their craftsmanship and dignity. By purchasing more than 500 paintings directly from artists, Haven Crafts ensured sustainable income for over 50 Pattachitra Artisans preserving both their livelihoods and dignity.
The artisans, many of whom are women and youth from traditional art families, expressed deep satisfaction and pride in being directly connected with appreciative buyers. Their stories, smiles, and strokes of brush are now part of homes and offices, carrying a legacy that spans generations.
Crafting Livelihoods: 100+ Jute Artisans Uplifted to create greener tomorrow
Haven Crafts has partnered with grassroots Jute artisans, especially women from Odisha to co-create a vibrant collection of eco-friendly Jute bags for shopping, gifting, lunch bags, bottle carriers, conference use, and more.
Direct collaboration ensures that artisans receive full value for their work, no commission cuts, no exploitation. Artisans are paid transparently and ethically, above market average, enabling sustainable livelihoods.
These reusable, biodegradable jute bags are replacing thousands of single-use plastics, while promoting artisan-made alternatives globally. Regular orders from corporates, event organizers, and eco-conscious brands ensure long-term employment and financial stability for artisan clusters.
