About the Artist

Tanisha is the founder and maker behind A Handcrafted Gaatha. She works primarily with crochet, creating handmade pieces using yarn and simple tools. She began crocheting a little over two years ago, teaching herself through online videos during a period of health challenges that required her to slow down. What started as a way to cope and stay occupied gradually grew into a small, independent brand rooted in handmade practice and personal care.

Today, Tanisha designs and creates her own crochet pieces and also works closely with women artisans, many of whom are homemakers or have stepped away from formal work due to health or family responsibilities. Each piece is made entirely by hand, with timelines varying based on size and detail, from small accessories to more layered designs. She does not follow trends or fixed production speeds, choosing instead to make work she personally connects with. The focus of her practice is on thoughtful making, shared skills, and creating objects that carry time, effort, and individual rhythm.

Ready-to-ship pieces are dispatched within 72 hours of placing your order. For made-to-order creations, the timeline mentioned on the product page applies.

Every piece at Kala Curry travels directly from the hands that made it to the home that will cherish it.

This mindful, direct journey reduces excess warehousing and unnecessary transit — a quieter, more considered approach to sustainability.

We offer free shipping on orders above ₹5,000.

As each piece is handcrafted with care, we accept returns only if your item arrives damaged or incorrect. Please notify us within 48 hours of delivery.

To help us resolve this smoothly, please share:

  • Clear photos of the product
  • An unboxing video showing the issue

You can submit your return request through our returns form here.
Care Guide

Reshape with Love: If Mendak Miyan gets a bit flattened during his adventures, just give his belly a little squeeze to bring back his round, "Golu" shape.

Cleaning: To keep his green coat vibrant, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Please avoid machine washing.

FAQs

Most commonly asked questions from the community

Why is there a shipping fee?

Each piece on Kala Curry is shipped directly from the artist or collective who made it, so your order might travel from different parts of the country depending on what you buy.

As we grow, we’re working on making shipping more efficient (and more affordable). But for now, this fee helps us make sure your art gets to you safely, straight from the source.

We offer free shipping on all orders over ₹5,000 as a small thank you for supporting handmade art.
How can I cancel my order?

Since we work with independent artists and small collectives, we don’t allow cancellations once an order is placed. We encourage you to buy only what you truly love. This helps us reduce waste and honours the time, care, and effort behind every piece. If you are unsure about a purchase and our website doesn’t answer all your questions, reach out to us at kalacurry.friends@gmail.com
How do I return my order?

We only accept returns if your order arrived damaged or if we sent you the wrong item. If that happens, just let us know within 48 hours of delivery, and we’ll take care of it.

To help us process your return smoothly, please take clear photos and an unboxing video when your package arrives. You can submit your return request through this link.
What do I do if my order is damaged?

We’re so sorry your order didn’t arrive as it should have. We promise we’ll try to make it right!

Please contact us within 48 hours of delivery, and send us photos + an unboxing video so that we can cross-check the issue with the artist and our shipping partners. We’ll process your return or replacement from there as per our return policy.
Why doesn’t Kala Curry offer cash on delivery (COD)?

Most Kala Curry products are shipped directly by our artisans and made in small batches.

COD orders have 2–3x higher return rates than prepaid orders, with nearly 1 in 4 orders being returned. These returns lead to unnecessary shipping, packaging waste, and higher carbon emissions, and directly impact artisan livelihoods.

By avoiding COD, we can:

  • Reduce returns and environmental burden
  • Ensure fair, predictable earnings for artisans
  • Enable faster, smoother deliveries

Thank you for supporting independent artists and sustainable craft practices.
