At Karigar Company, our journey begins with a profound connection to Odisha, India. Our roots are embedded in the rich traditions and timeless knowledge of this region. We are passionate about reviving these age-old practices and making them accessible to the modern lifestyle.
This emphasis on quality can lead to a stronger sense of pride in one’s work, as artisans often invest time and attention to detail to create something unique and long-lasting.
Evolution of our products are never rushed to market, but slowly developed to be useful, beautiful and ethical.
We embrace the essence of 'being slow,' which entails completing
tasks at the optimal pace — be it swift or leisurely.
Slow living means being fully present, cherishing each moment,
and prioritizing quality over quantity in every creation.
