"We are trying to promote Bengal crafts and hope to generate more employment and help revive Bengal's rich heritage," says the artisan duo. Recycled polyester cloth is used to cover plastic beads; every bead is separated from the next with tied-off cotton thread. The two purple strands and one maroon strand are bound together with purple cords. A sliding bead allows the necklace to be made longer or shorter.About our Artist: Hello, we are Rajnandinee and Srabonti. We are from the beautiful city of Kolkata in West Bengal, which is often called the City of Joy.We love Indian arts and crafts, especially from Bengal. In fact, friends and family would ask us to design for them, so we thought it was a good idea to start a design studio and thats how we started our little venture in 2014. Its been a lovely experience so far. We have five artisans who works full time in our workshop these artisans mainly work on handbags. We also have about three or four weavers from a local village who weave scarves and stoles for us.Srabonti was introduced to art at an early age through her mother, who designed and stitched beautiful garments for herself and her daughter and got her interested in the craft.Rajnandinee is a self-taught artisan who is inspired by her surroundings, nature and traditional craft.Like any other venture, weve had difficult moments, but because we are both craft lovers, we motivate each other during the rough patches....
