About the Artist

LAFA is a product design studio which functions as a space for experimentation and material-led design through everyday objects and playful art forms. LAFA works across paper, biodegradable materials, and print, creating items such as hand-bound books, reinforced paper bags, biodegradable masks, posters, and small collectible objects. Rooted in the founders’ experience of building a biodegradable packaging design and distribution startup, the studio places strong emphasis on quality, material intelligence, and thoughtful making, producing work that balances function, humour, and visual impact.

LAFA’s practice is shaped by its Goan context and interests in bookbinding, print culture, and popular memory. Their books draw on nostalgia and humour, while embracing colour, maximalist expression, and playful typography as tools for storytelling.

Shipping & Returns

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. Because your order ships straight from the artist, multiple items may arrive in separate packages from different corners of India. 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

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.
