About Craftsvilla: Craftsvilla.com is a marketplace to “Discover Unique Indian Products” including Handmade, Vintage, Ethnic, Organic and Natural products from India.
India is a beautiful assortment of diversity reflected in our Clothing, Food, Lifestyle, Language, Music, Books etc. This diversity is so rich and diverse that an attempt to capture it on a single platform was never made. Craftsvilla.com is that sincere attempt by bunch of young insane guys and gals who think this is possible now with the Internet.
Craftsvilla.com uses a marketplace model to capture the regional variations of India. We connect local artisans & designers directly to global customers and thereby increase their livelihood, remove middlemen, help them create/promote their brand and thereby preserve our culture, traditions and values. We believe this journey will not only help artisans of India but also help customers discover and buy products which they otherwise are not able to do today.
As they say starting Craftsvilla.com was fate, reaching out to artisans was a choice, but falling in love with the idea of India was beyond our control. Lets relive that old India together again.
Craftsvilla.com is funded by US based Investors: Nexus Venture Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners. Craftsvilla.com has also been hailed in the various media including Times of India, Hindu, Economic Times, WSJ etc as the “Hottest Young Company in Handicrafts in India” which is bringing positive change in the livelihood of base level artisans and designers.
500+ shops, 50,000+ products !!
Rightly called the ‘Etsy’ of India..or even better..
It brings together various artisans or people who make their own stuff, jewellery, purses, clutches and a lot more..since this is a common huge platform catering to a large number of audience, it is very beneficial for the sellers..and the same way..even to the buyers who want to buy such stuff but do not know from where to..this common platform unites the buyers and sellers.
They stock everything from Apparels, Accessories, Gifts, Bath and Beauty products, Bags, Clutches, Jewellery, Home Decoration Stuff, Footwear..just about everything..but mostly the handmade and traditional touch stuff..
I loved the colorful jewellery and bags..especially earrings, clutches, jholas..even one whole day is less for browsing all the stuff :p
I ordered a tatted anklet and an off white clutch with gold border from them…I am addicted to collecting anklets…I have them in all shapes, sizes, colors and designs 😀 Would show you my collection some time..I liked so many anklets here that I was totally confused..but when I saw this..I knew I had to get this !
And this off white clutch..its wide enough to carry basic stuff with a salwar suit..I have a few suits paired with which this would look pretty..there are many different designs and colors similar to this clutch..
Craftsvilla accepts all forms of payments..but since the products are sent out by the sellers..the timing, packaging, etc varies..and so does the option of Cash on Delivery..coz some sellers do not accept COD..it is mentioned separately for each product. So CC,DC and Net Banking is always there…COD is offered by some sellers..
I received both the things separately as both were from different sellers..the anklets were nicely wrapped around a scented paper inside a paper envelope and I also got these earrings free with them..:)
Overall I am quite happy with my experience..I liked a lot of anklets, clutches and bags..and all are priced reasonably too..I am surely shopping again..
P.S: I got a voucher to shop for but it has not affected my opinion.
