Artisanal Abode

Artisanal Abode is a young furniture design studio based out of Pune, India. We develop a wide range of contemporary handcrafted furniture products, utilising the largely untapped skills of local artisans, artists and craftsmen in India. Each creation is soulfully handcrafted using age-old artisanal techniques, resulting in pieces that are modern and luxurious. We specialise in working with a combination of materials like wood, brass, metals, marble and mother of pearl. Upasana Jain, a graduate from the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad and NYU ITP, New York founded Artisanal Abode in 2016 to marry her passion for handmade, luxury furniture products with her mission to enrich the lives and professions of local artisans and craftsmen in India. Empaneled as a designer with the Development Commissioner of Handicrafts, India, Upasana believes that the intricate skills of local craftsmen are largely untapped and there is a big opportunity to align our collective creativity towards craft-based design.
