At Essential Designs London, we try to bring the spirit of traditional India into Home Furnishings which keep the handcrafted magic alive but are affordable to everyone to appreciate in their homes. Our products range from up north Kashmir to Western India Rajasthan & Gujarat!

We specialise in Kantha bedspreads throws, winter blankets, winter wraps, textile wall decor, sustainable up-cycled Silk Kimonos, cushion covers, meditation cushions, handloom rugs, floor cushions.

Our company founded in 2008 was a creative edge for Minnie who specialises in Hr & Accounting. The textile enthusiast who was feeling a lack of any creative outlet, started small, as it was a tough journey for a person to manage all the ends from production to sales. In 2016, Devika joined as a co-partner to add some vibrancy to the collection. Since 2016, we both manage different ends of the work.

We travel thrice a year to India to work closely with artisans. This also allows us to ensure quality standards and also explore all that is new and upcoming. We sit down personally with artisans to ensure all the collection is quality checked before reaching the UK. Different artisans are based across Rajasthan in western India. We travel locally spending time at different units, especially the ones in Barmer and Jaipur. Other times of the year we have to rely upon technology which has certainly made it easier to connect with artisans and their specialities.

Together, they bring the hard work of the artisans to fruition by making sure that the artisans are fairly paid and have an ethical working atmosphere and standards. Our Love for the unique Bohemian Spirit can be widely seen in the elements of the products from the collection.

We recently launched a limited Clothing segment from up-cycled Sarees to reduce landfills and give way to Slow fashion!

We also recently launched the Kashmir segment after coming across a very versatile artisan based in Srinagar.

We aim to keep alive the vibe of India the world over and show how our diversity still unites us!

What they’re saying

Ne sed vero libris, his vivendo referrentur an. Torquatos voluptatum sit ad. Legendos dignissim eu mea, sea ei doming inimicus adolescens. Stet iusto deserunt sed in, ex quo quot invidunt.

Johana Hughes Designer

Duo alii persius qualisque in, sea ne affert iudicabit vituperatoribus. Exerci fabellas mei ea, est ad audire eripuit tincidunt. Omnes meliore qui id, sit no scaevola maluisset persequeris.

Mario Jonson Designer

At quidam dissentiet definitionem eam, te nec ullum similique. Verear appareat adversarium id eos, eum ei aperiri vivendo quaestio, mea leg ea. Quo probo noluisse menandri an.
