About Kaarigari Durbar
Where Heritage Meets the Modern Home
Kaarigari Durbar was founded by Purnima Singh, an interior designer with a deep love for art, craft, and the quiet beauty of handmade objects. For years, while designing spaces for clients, Purnima noticed something missing. Young people wanted homes that felt personal and soulful, not filled with mass produced pieces that looked the same in every apartment.
Our Story
Purnima’s journey began with a simple belief: beautiful, handcrafted objects should not be locked away in traditional markets or dusty showrooms. They deserve to live in the everyday spaces of a new generation, on modern dining tables, open shelves, minimalist kitchens, and thoughtfully designed homes. She works closely with skilled ceramic artisans across India, supporting them with fair opportunities, design collaboration, and a platform that values their craft.
Our Mission
We exist to support the makers by creating a direct bridge between artisans and customers who appreciate authentic work. We aim to make heritage relevant again by offering pieces that feel fresh, graphic, and contemporary—the kind of objects young people actually want to use, gift, and collect.
What You’ll Find Here
At Kaarigari Durbar you will discover handcrafted ceramic tableware and décor that blends old-world skill with modern design sensibilities. Every platter, plate, mug, and bowl is handmade and hand-painted. We ship worldwide because great craft deserves to travel. Crafted with character. Designed for today.
