About the Indus Valley Art

The Indus Valley Civilization, also known as the Harappan Civilization, was one of the earliest urban civilizations in the world. Flourishing from around 2600 BCE to 1900 BCE in the area of modern-day Pakistan and northwest India, it produced diverse and sophisticated art.

Their art, ranging from pottery, sculpture, and seal carving to jewelry and metalwork, was characterized by intricate designs, skilled craftsmanship, and attention to detail. While much of their artwork was functional, the Harappans also created highly prized decorative pieces, offering a glimpse into their ancient culture and beliefs.

Our platform celebrates this rich heritage by showcasing contemporary interpretations and traditional techniques inspired by the Indus Valley, directly supporting the craftspeople who keep these skills alive today.

Our Mission

In our society, middlemen often profit significantly while the actual craftspeople in small towns and villages receive little. Our mission is to bridge this gap.

We work directly with the artists and craftspeople who are the true creators of traditional artifacts. By connecting them directly with art lovers, we ensure they receive fair compensation. Furthermore, 25% of our profits are dedicated to supporting these artisans in upgrading their livelihoods.
