Santiniketan Handlooms Private Limited

Our place is located at 281 Nandalal Bose Sarani, which is right near the Children Park in Hakimpara. It’s a nice area, and we like being so close to the park. We work with handlooms here. If you've never seen a handloom in person, it’s quite a large piece of equipment and it makes a very specific clicking sound when it’s running. Our workshop is filled with that noise from morning until the sun goes down. We have piles of yarn in all different colors stacked up against the walls. It’s not a very modern setup, but the old ways of weaving are what we know best. We spend a lot of time threading the looms and making sure the patterns are coming out the way they should. It’s a slow process, but we aren't in a massive rush. Most of the people here have lived in the neighborhood for a long time, and we’ve become a bit of a fixture on this street. We don't have any big mission statements or corporate goals. We just like weaving and making sure the fabric is strong enough to last. Sometimes the kids from the park come by and look through the windows at the looms. It’s just a normal day-to-day business for us, keeping the tradition of hand-weaving alive in our own small way without any fancy talk or expensive marketing.
