FAQs
Most commonly asked questions from the community
Why is there a Rs.150 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.
