Out of Stock & Pre Orders?

In case any of your desired products are out of stock now or you do not find them on the website they are most likely sold out. Please feel free to get in touch with our customer care team. We may have similar products ready (color/design) but the photoshoots may not have happened so they will not be available on the website. Our customer service team will update you on the same via email and help you place your order

Some premium products will also be available for pre ordering and you will notice the preorder tag on the product page. The products appearing with tag/section can be customised for fabric and colors.

Pre Orders generally take 60-90 days from the date of placing the order but in some cases the weaving time may go up to 6 months depending on the intricacy of the design and weaving technique used.

Most pre orders are technically advance orders and a tentative date of despatch will be available on the product page. These are pre paid orders.

In case of orders where the delivery time is more than 6 months the order can be placed with 50% payment upfront and balance prior to shipping.
