Namrata and Namrata Weaves
MEET NAMRATA
Namrata spent her childhood in the steel town of Bokaro, India. There, with her parents, both doctors, and with her sister she imbibed the values that are her guiding principles today. She wrote poetry, painted, sang and dreamt of becoming a scientist. Her dreams came true - as a microbiologist she taught nursing students. And then life presented her with the gift of life – a daughter. At that moment of motherhood, she chose to nurture her child at home and returned to her art. She entered the World of fabrics and weaving embracing fabric as her new canvas. Since 2011, she has supported weavers, tailors and artisans who make her art come alive. She established Namrata Weaves – a socially and environmentally responsible company – that produces unique artifacts, such as sarees, and other works of art. After all, as Namrata says, “the saree is not a garment, it is an emotion.” Set up an appointment to meet Namrata
NAMRATA WEAVES
The art of Namrata comes alive in the carefully curated products sold under the “Namrata Weaves” label. As a woman entrepreneur in India she started the company modestly in the apartment of her family in Kolkata, India. Namrata nurtured the company, working with numerous weavers and artisans, belonging to the diverse communities in India, with whom she developed a fraternity, offering a path forward to a better life for the people she worked with. Simultaneously, she offered the customer certain unique experiences such as presenting them fabric in unique designs, with each saree having a unique name, so that the customer knew that there is only one of that saree - a piece of art - that the customer can claim as the only one ever made. Starting in 2023, nearly twelve years after the formal inception of the company, Namrata Weaves now has a global presence and recognition. She has expanded the way in which the work of the artisans and weavers can be creatively applied to fabric to bring alive the artistic sensibility of Namrata in a variety of products - from the traditional saree to keepsake “potli” bags that fit in with the home decor products now available from Namrata Weaves. The journey of Namrata and Namrata Weaves has been inspiring and much more is yet to come.
