Founded in 2000 by Anu Agarwal,
Shastra Home is an online handmade and eclectic gift shop that brings together the rich artistry of traditional Indian craftsmanship and the vibrant design scene of Dallas. Anu’s unique journey began with her access to artist clusters in India, where she learned and adapted their specific and traditional skill sets. With a passion for design and a vision to bridge these two worlds, Shastra Home was born.
From our very first tradeshow, where we partnered with esteemed clients like Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s, Shastra Home has established itself as a go-to online handmade and eclectic gift shop for those seeking unique, artisan-crafted pieces. Our mission is to offer a range of beautiful, handmade, and functional products that not only add character to any space but also give back to the talented artists who create them.
At Shastra Home, every piece is handmade using traditional techniques from India, ensuring that no two items are identical. As a dedicated online handmade and eclectic gift shop, we take pride in supporting the artisans behind each creation, helping to improve their quality of life and preserve their skills for future generations. By choosing Shastra Home, you are not just buying a product—you are becoming a part of a story that values tradition, craftsmanship, and community.
