Why is revival of Indian crafts necessary?

Every craft in India was born out of necessity, a necessity that was met with local materials and skills honed over many centuries. Crafts are as much part of our culture as food or festivals we celebrate. It is imperative that we revive them before they are lost...

Transforming traditional Indian crafts to a modern utilitarian context.

We're a brand that draws uninhibited inspiration from nature, culture and arts. Blending India’s rich sustainable materials and practices with contemporary design. This balance between tradition, innovation and modernity is a hallmark of brand - Bamboopecker.

Every year, we travel to a different part of India to explore it's culture, heritage, locally available materials and artisanal skills. We continue this journey through design development empowering artisans wherever we go. Each creation of ours tells this story - The story of a change and rural upliftment crafted product by product.

For us the commitment to high-quality craftsmanship is unwavering. Craftsmanship not confined to borders, we aim to share the beauty and significance of Indian craftsmanship with a global audience.

Sustainability is a fundamental value for Bamboopecker. The brand strives to create products and operate in a way that minimizes its environmental impact. This includes using eco-friendly materials and sustainable production methods.

How to not limit Indian crafts to craft fairs alone?

In one word, the answer is - Design.
Indian artisans are proud of skills passed down through generations, and what they lack is - exposure to urban needs. Our design philosophy bridges that gap, and lets their crafts flourish on-par with contemporary machine-made products.

OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY


Our design philosophy is tailored to revive traditional Indian sustainable methods and crafts by weaving them into our design language. The idea is to reorient the crafts to the modern context with new techniques and design philosophy.

Our aim has always been to create a brand that champions timeless, functional, and versatility as the core of our design philosophy.


Designed using traditional methods, our creative approach ensures products are natural and safe and a philosophy that ensures FORM follows FUNCTION, by allowing the function to be obvious, the end user can easily determine how to use and interact with it...

Why use materials that renew quickly?

Using quick renewable materials you are literally growing your home, rather than building it!

Mindfulness @ Bamboopecker

At Bamboopecker, being an Earth centric brand, mindfulness is the cornerstone of our brand.

Eco-friendly Materials - All materials we use are from nature, locally sourced and we focus only on materials that renew quickly - Bamboo, Kouna, sheethal patti, Rattan, to name a few.
At present our focus is on using Lantana Camara, a weed that is taking over our ecosystem. It is an ecological disaster. At the forefront of this is consuming lantana architecturally, turning an issue into a resource by employing local tribes to harvest it from the forests so that the ecosystem can regenerate.

Handcrafted - All our products crafted with hand keeping the carbon footprint negative and contributing to the reversal of climate change.

Conscious Packaging - We collect packaging material from apartment complexes to reuse it one more time before it is recycled. Reuse always comes before recycling.

Prevent Migration - During the COVID pandemic we took a conscious decision to limit displacement of artisans from rural India. We are achieving this by forming craft clusters in villages that bring our design to life.

Treatment - Eco-friendly processes are set in place to treat our material and products. We are researching using natural oils to protect our products. Taking one step at a time towards sustainability.
