Our Philosophy & Crafts
Poppy Dream's core philosophy centers on the power of storytelling and empowering creators to share their own narratives. We are committed to attributing art and creative works to their origins through customer education and building compelling narratives around the crafts. We research the history and origins of these crafts to make them accessible to our customers through our product and design descriptions.
The Royal Arts of Sanganeri Block Prints
Sanganeri block prints have a story that stretches back over 500 years, from the quiet town of Sanganer in Rajasthan. These hand-printed textiles are famous for their fine floral patterns and intricate details and were once crafted for kings and queens, adorning royal courts with their elegance.
Fast forward to the 1960s and ’70s, and they were suddenly everywhere from Indian markets to global stages with artists like The Beatles. What began as a royal tradition became a symbol of artistic freedom and cultural fusion. Today, we celebrate Sanganeri prints not just for their history, but for the soul and craftsmanship that live on in every piece.
Kantha Stitching: Hand Sewn Stories
Kantha is more than just a stitch—it's a storytelling tradition passed down through generations of women in Bengal. Rooted in the heritage of Nakshi Kantha, this delicate embroidery began as a way to repurpose old sarees and fabrics, with each piece stitched lovingly by hand to tell personal stories, dreams, and memories.
No two kanthas are ever the same and each one is a tapestry of life, capturing moments through needle and thread. At Poppy Dream, Kantha Stitching claims a special place as it holds our core ethos of expressing our own stories through our homes.
