KUMUDINI
The Daily Star
ideal choice to get gifts from this Eid
With the goal of making women in Bangladesh self-reliant, Kumudini Handicrafts initiated their journey in 1980. Now in 2013, 33 years after its commencement, Kumudini Handicrafts has not only succeeded in making Bangladeshi artisans more independent, it has also captured a special place in the hearts of its customers. When the boutique culture of Dhaka was still in its early stage, Kumudini Handicrafts launched one of the first stylish Fair Trade clothing boutiques.
Their individuality lies in the quality of their products and that they are made entirely in Bangladesh. These locally crafted and designed products are presented in such an innovative and tasteful manner that the high quality handicrafts have not only gained recognition in the local markets but are also exported to international markets. While the current norm is to follow international trends when it comes to clothing, especially Indian and Pakistani fashion, Kumudini Handicrafts still manages to please customers and keep them connected to their heritage weaves.
Kumudini Handicrafts is recognised and appreciated for their Nakshi Kantha, jamdani, muslin and half-silk, endi silk and nakshi stitched home accessories in addition to their block print and hand embroidered shalwar kameez sets, kurtas, shirts and children’s wear.
Eid is that time of the year when you look to give gifts to your loved ones and Kumudini Handicrafts is one place that can make this task easier for you.
They have a good range of cotton saris, handloom saris, saris with ethnic, tribal motifs, muslin, silk, and half silk in an array of friendly colours and impressive designs.
The jamdanis they have on display are impeccable and each of them is unique and has a character of its own. The vibrant colours like lime green, mauve, royal blue, lemon yellow, etc. of these jamdani saris is what sets them apart from any other store. New patterns and motifs can be seen in these saris, while keeping the touch of our tradition intact. In addition to cotton, silk and half silk jamdanis which are widely available, Kumudini Handicrafts also offers tissue jamdanis. These beautifully crafted jamdanis usually come along with a blouse piece in the same fabric and motif.
If you want to avoid the perceived hassle of wearing a sari, you can opt for a jamdani two-piece or three-piece which comes in a variety of colours
Cotton saris hung on walls and some displayed on tables are ideal for gifts. You can find handloom saris with block prints and vegetable dyes. If you are planning to give it to an elderly person you can choose a sober color and be assured that they will fall in love with the sari as soon as they lay their eyes on it. For men, you can choose from their wide variety of panjabis, especially in whites — neatly hand-embroidered. Panjabis are available in many fabrics as well starting from silk to cotton to endi silk, etc. These panjabis can be found for young boys as well in vibrant colours and sizes according to ages. It is often difficult to get panjabis for kids but Kumudini Handicrafts has a good stock to offer.
Kumudini Handicrafts has a good collection for shalwar kameezes and fatuas for young girls this Eid in a variety of materials. You can also choose a suitable gift from their range of frocks.
In addition to clothing, Kumudini also offers cute coin purses, jewellery to match your outfits, purses to accessorise your Eid attire, tupi to wear to Eid prayers, leather wallets, pen holders, photo frames, etc.
In addition to their store in Gulshan 1, Kumudini Handicrafts is opening another showroom on Friday 19 July at House# 112, Road # 12, Block # E at Banani, Dhaka.
