Slow craft, made with care, sold with conscience.
In the rural villages of Sindh, Pakistan, the art of weaving date palm leaves into beautiful, functional objects has been passed down through generations of women artisans. These are not factory-made products. Each basket, hot pot and bottle holder is handwoven by skilled craftswomen using techniques that are centuries old — and naturally sourced dyes that give every piece its vivid, distinctive colour.
By purchasing from this collection, you are directly supporting the livelihoods of these communities — many of whom were severely affected by the catastrophic 2022 Pakistan floods. This is conscious commerce at its most tangible.
The Collection
Available in 4 core colours (green, pink, blue & black) and 4 printed patterns (pink & green, black & white, blue & yellow, purple & pink). Because every piece is handmade, no two are identical — slight variations in shade are a mark of authenticity, not imperfection.
Three styles are available:
-
Hot Pot — 24cm diameter × 13cm height. Perfect for serving bread, fruit or mezze at the table
-
Fruit Basket — 24cm diameter × 13cm height. A beautiful everyday centrepiece for your kitchen or dining table

The Story Behind Sartyoon Sang
This collection has been developed in collaboration with Sartyoon Sang — meaning together with friends in Sindhi — who act as the bridge between Sikhana and the artisan communities of Sindh. Every purchase contributes directly to a regular income stream for the women who make these pieces, preserving a traditional craft that might otherwise be lost.
Sikhana. Authentic craft, conscious commerce, the art of Pakistani heritage — for your home and your table.
