Dimple & Akkriti, at home.
In Hindi, घर is more than a building — it is the feeling of belonging. We make things intentionally, with care, built to last — always in small quantities.
Good to know
We launched with hand block printed cushion covers, and that craft is still at our heart. Since then we have added new block print designs, plus a whole new Ikat weave collection — wall art, table linens, and more.
Hand block printing is a centuries-old Indian textile craft. A design is carved into a wooden block, the block is dipped in colour, and pressed onto fabric by hand — one impression at a time. A single pattern can use several blocks, one for every colour. Our cushion covers are hand block printed on 100% pure cotton by artisan communities in India.
Because a human hand pressed every block. Small variations in pressure, ink, and placement are the nature of hand block printing — they are not defects, but proof that your piece was made by a person, not a machine. No two Ghar pieces are ever identical.
Each impression is placed by eye and by hand, block after block, along metres of fabric. The gentle shifts in alignment are part of the rhythm of the craft — look closely at any hand block printed textile and you will find them. It is how you know it is real.
Ikat is a weaving technique where the threads are dyed in a pattern before the fabric is even woven — not printed on afterward. That is what gives Ikat its soft, slightly blurred edges, instead of a sharp printed line.
Weavers tie off small sections of thread and dye them in stages, building the pattern into the thread itself before it ever reaches the loom. The dyed threads are then woven together by hand — since everything has to line up just right, tiny natural shifts are what give Ikat its soft, blurred look.
No — every Ghar piece is custom made for us. We spend hours designing each print, wooden blocks are carved for that design, each piece of fabric is printed block by block, then cut and sewn to our dimensions, checked for quality, shipped to us in the Netherlands, and sent on to you. That is also why there are limited pieces of everything.
Hours of skilled work by real people. Designing the print, carving each wooden block from solid wood — a single block can take up to a week — printing colour by colour by hand, stitching, finishing, and quality checks. Our artisans are fairly paid for their craft. You are not paying for a logo; you are paying the hands that made it.
Air it out often — it needs washing less than you think. When needed: cold water, gentle cycle, washed alone. Dry in the shade, never tumble dry, never bleach, and iron on the reverse side. Cared for this way, hand block printed cotton stays beautiful for years. See our Care page for the full guide.
We currently deliver within the EU, from Amsterdam. All orders are pre-orders while we build our inventory, so delivery can take a few extra days — we email you your exact delivery timeline the moment your order ships.
On purpose. We keep every first batch small and build our inventory based on real orders, not guesses — so nothing is overproduced and nothing ends up in a landfill. Each design exists in a limited number of pieces right now; your order is what tells us to make more.
We take all your order details first — no payment is collected at checkout. We then reach out to you personally with a payment link, and send a confirmation once it's settled. You'll hear from us shortly after ordering. We keep it this way because our production is small-scale and intentional, and we would rather stay personally in touch with every order than run it through an automated checkout.
No. Every photo on this site is taken on our own phone cameras and kept as it is — no filters, no retouching. What you see is genuinely what the piece looks like.
Soon! We are planning workshops where you can carve, ink, and press your own prints — the whole joy of making fabric by hand. Leave your name and email and you will be the first to hear the dates.
