Our story

Namaste! Welcome to Bombay Artisans

My name is Rupal, and I founded Bombay Artisans in 2023 to celebrate and share the rich handicrafts of India with the world.

I'm based in Melbourne with my family now, though my story began in India, where I grew up captivated by vibrant colours and skilled hands around me.
After moving to Australia, I always dreamed of having my own business  and knew that the colours and beautiful artisanal work of India were what I wanted to share with the world. So after a long 15-year corporate career I finally took the chance to pursue my long-term passion for sustainable and ethical fashion and the rest is history.

Our Mission
Our mission is to showcase diverse, locally crafted products from India and make these exquisite handicrafts accessible to everyone in Australia and beyond. While empowering the artisans that make them. Each product we have is more than just an item; it’s a piece of art, a labor of love, and a testament to centuries-old traditions.

Our Vision
Our Vision is to be a leading advocate for handmade, eco-friendly products that celebrate cultural heritage and craftsmanship. Join us in celebrating the artistry of Indian artisans and making a positive impact on our planet.

Thank you for your support and please feel free to send me any thoughts, comments or feedback. 

Namaste and with love,

Rupal
