Banjaras Natural Fabrics of India
Banjaras is Pune’s pioneer natural fabric store and was founded by Neeta Deshpande in 1992. Over time, they have grown, learnt and evolved to be a niche store showcasing handcrafted art from weavers across India. Their idea is to break the stereotype of associating natural fabrics and handlooms with conventional Indian wear and sensitizing urban India to the rich heritage of Indian fabric art all under one roof, truly believing in the adage ‘Originality needs Courage’. Sourced directly from weavers and artisans from 15 states and 26 regions of India, Banjaras houses fabrics, dupattas, stoles, concept sarees and a wide variety of accessories to leave you spoilt for choice.
Our collaboration with Banjaras helps us source customised fabrics and accessories at specially discounted rates. The products we create with Banjaras support in raising awareness about lesser-known species and contributes to fund our conservation efforts.
