About Us
Nestled in the heart of Bastar, Chhattisgarh, a craft has quietly survived for over 4000 years — Dhokra art, born from the lost-wax casting technique, and shaped by the hands of artisan communities who have carried it forward for generations. Shambhavi Creations exists to make sure this extraordinary craftsmanship finally gets the recognition, and the reach, it has always deserved.
We bring together handpicked pieces handcrafted by artisans from Bastar and other artisan communities across India — figurines, masks, wall accents, utility items, wall frames, and mementos. Each piece is designed with a contemporary sensibility, but its soul remains rooted in the imagination and skill of the artisans who pioneered this art form. Every product tells a quiet story — of legacy, of everyday life, and of a deep, environment-friendly connection to the land it comes from.
We take quality as seriously as we take our artisans' welfare. Every piece goes through careful checks before it reaches you, and our in-house manufacturing and strong sourcing network let us keep costs fair — without ever compromising on what our craftsmen deserve: fair pay and year-round work.
From Bastar to homes across India and the world — that's the journey we're building, one handcrafted piece at a time.
Our Story
It all began with a simple realisation — that some of the most extraordinary craftsmanship in India was going unseen, tucked away in the villages of Bastar, Chhattisgarh. Dhokra art, with its 4000-year-old lost-wax casting technique, was being kept alive by artisan communities who poured generations of skill into every piece, yet rarely got the recognition — or the reach — their work deserved.
Shambhavi Creations was born from the desire to change that. We wanted to build a bridge between these skilled hands and homes across India and the world, so that every buyer wasn't just picking up a decor piece, but carrying home a story — of legacy, patience, and craftsmanship passed down through generations.
What started as a small initiative has grown into a mission we care deeply about: sourcing directly from artisan communities, ensuring fair and consistent pay, and giving skilled craftsmen year-round employment — all while keeping the art form authentic, un-mechanised, and true to its roots.
Every piece that leaves our workshop carries a bit of Bastar with it. That's the story we're proud to tell, one handcrafted creation at a time.
Recognised on Bigger Stages
Great craftsmanship doesn't stay confined to homes — it finds its way to bigger platforms too. Shambhavi Creations' handcrafted Dhokra art has earned recognition beyond décor, at events that celebrate authentic Indian craftsmanship.
At the Greater Surat Business Conclave 2024, one of our handcrafted brass showpieces — carrying the skill and imagination of Bastar's artisans — became part of a special felicitation moment, honouring actor Boman Irani.
Moments like these remind us that the work coming out of Bastar isn't just decor. It's a living craft tradition, one that continues to earn its place on national platforms.
