Born in the verdant, rain-swept heights of Meghalaya, the "Abode of Clouds" the Knup carries the quiet strength of the indigenous hills.

STORY

For generations, the Khasi weaver has sat amidst the scent of damp earth and split bamboo, fingers dancing to the rhythm of the falling rain. Each strip of bamboo is a dialogue between the maker’s hands and the resilient fiber, a ritual of protection transformed into a sculpture of grace. Once a shield held against the heavy sky, this Knup now hangs as a silent custodian of your sanctuary. It holds within its weave the patience of the hills and the untold chronicles of the forest, waiting to share its warmth with those who value the slow-made. To welcome this piece is not merely to decorate, but to become the guardian of an ancient, breathing legend.
