Our Story
How a single dhaka shawl, handed down through three generations, grew into a home for authentic Nepali craft.
Where we began
Rooted in heritage, made for today
Poshak Ghar — “the house of attire” — began in a narrow lane of Kathmandu, between a tailor's treadle machine and the steady clack of a backstrap loom. We grew up surrounded by this work, watching mothers and grandmothers turn thread into something worn with pride at every festival and welcome.
We founded the house to carry that living craft to people everywhere — without flattening it into something generic along the way.

What we stand for
Four principles, every piece
Authentic Handmade
Every weave, print, and bead is made by human hands — never mass-produced. The small irregularities are the signature of a real maker.
Empowering Artisans
We work directly with weavers and tailors — many of them women running household workshops — paying fair wages and ordering year-round.
Sustainable & Ethical
Natural fibres, plant-dyed yarns, and low-waste cutting keep our footprint light. We make in considered batches, never overproducing.
Nepali Heritage
From the dhaka of the eastern hills to the pashmina of the Kathmandu Valley, each piece carries a regional story we keep alive.
Built with makers
The hands behind every thread
We sit with weavers and tailors, learn their craft and their constraints, and design a way to bring their work to a wider audience honestly. Every order keeps a loom running and a tradition alive.
When a piece reaches your door, it arrives as a small introduction to the person who made it.
“Cloth can hold memory, place, and love — our work is simply to keep it whole, and pass it on.”
