Welcome to Kerala Crafts. We present to you a range of beautifully made and artistic handicrafts from the state of Kerala, in tropical south west India. Formerly comprising the districts of Travancore and Malabar, it came into being in 1956 following redrawing of boundaries along linguistic lines: in this case Malayalam.

We operate a fair trade ethic, putting people before profits. Each of the products displayed on this site has decades of tradition, experience and innovative spirit behind them. We support several artisans’ co-operatives and indigenous charities, and every product you buy ensures a fair price to the manufacturer.



 

Central to our range of products are beautifully made and artistic handicrafts, most of which are unique to the UK. All products are painstakingly hand worked by numerous men and women with a concentration and dedication unimaginable to the rest of us.

Natural sustainable materials, natural dyes and an exquisite simplicity add a quality of pure beauty to the products. What's more, their distinctive patterns, designs and hues combine to make them unique.

Kerala Crafts also offers direct sales to both retailers and individual customers at discounted prices. If you would like to place an order, contact us at:

Kerala is renowned for its outstanding craftsmanship. Our endeavours help preserve ancient traditions and unique artistic skills which might otherwise decline. With little heavy industry to offer mass employment to a rapidly growing population, there is a pressing need to maintain and encourage job prospects.

By placing an order, you are assured of good value while at the same time helping the community, furthering our efforts to provide vital work for skilled artisans who would otherwise be unemployed and living in serious poverty.

At Kerala Crafts we help find markets for their quality handicrafts, and enable workers to reach out to a larger market, providing economies of scale.
