Each Craft has a story , a story of ancient India and its people. A story that has been carefully preserved by millions of talented artisans in every corner of our country. We want to present these stories to you.  The stories of a village where the artisans arrived, stories of a king who patronized them, stories of a temple that celebrated their art.  Most  importantly, we want to tell you the incredible stories of  the artisans who created these crafts.

Arteastic online store was launched in 2017. The thought behind this venture is to preserve and promote the lesser-known Art and Craft forms from the Eastern and North Eastern states of India. Documenting the intangible cultural heritage of India is one of our missions. With that desire in our heart, we created this little knowledge corner for handicrafts.
