LIMITED EDITION – Available While Supplies Last! Handcrafted using some of India’s most beautiful and inspiring ancient artisanal techniques, the Block Print Culinary Set is sure to beautify your kitchen with its handmade touch. Blending ancient Artisan traditions with modern function, women handcraft this beautiful block-printed pomegranate and vine design featured on the Pomegranate Tea Towel. A convenient loop is added to a corner of the towel for convenient hanging.
The Lotus Measuring Spoons includes four wooden measuring spoons: ¼ teaspoon, ½ teaspoon, 1 teaspoon, and 1 tablespoon. Handcrafted out of eco-friendly acacia wood, a sustainable, fast-growing wood that is loved for its strength and wide variety of natural color variations, each measuring spoon also has a dainty lotus design on the handle. Every purchase of the Block Print Culinary Set creates necessary jobs for women in India to rise out of the grip of poverty to impact the lives of their families and their communities.
Every set has variations as a part of the Artisan-made charm!
*Note: As this is hand-carved, measurements may vary slightly. Do take in consideration for precise recipes.
Care Instructions for Pomegranate Tea Towel: Wash in cold water. Lay flat to dry.
Care Instructions for Lotus Measuring Spoons: Hand wash with warm water and soap and dry with a cloth. To prevent wooden spoons from becoming too dry, occasionally massage spoons with safflower, soy, walnut, or linseed oil and dry excess oil off with a cloth.

Akash and Rabia’s Story of Hope “Our belief is, as designers, we can only imagine ideas. The true heroes are the Artisans who convert our thoughts into reality. They make it happen. The crux of the matter is they are equal partners in our journey. And that’s how we treat them as well.” – Akash & Rabia After attending design school together, Akash and Rabia quickly became inseparable, sharing the same values and passion for creating a safe work environment for women, began to design a workshop that preserved and honored both Artisan traditions and Artisans, and got married in December of 2019. The powerful couple determined to counter the sweatshop culture that often takes advantage of Artisans in India, Akash and Rabia took great care to offer protections, benefits, and opportunities that would empower their Artisans to provide their families with a dignified standard of living. Together they created a clean, well-lit workshop near the Artisans’ homes and families. They offered specialized training and committed to pay each Artisan a living wage – above and beyond their required minimum wage. They offered interest-free home loans and even offered to sponsor a child’s education from the Artisan community every school year. They offered opportunities for Artisans to speak up whenever they had concerns or ideas. Above all, they offered their Artisans dignity, respect, and hope.
