Pichakam Weaves: Artisan-Made Fashion Online Store

Our Story

Pichakam meaning Jasmine known for its highly fragrant white flowers, is a label that works specifically with the artisans in Kerala. Kasavu sarees are traditional handwoven sarees that are characteristic of Kerala and are known for their distinctive off-white or cream-coloroured fabric with a gold border. These handcrafted sarees are considered as a symbol of grace and elegance. Pichakam strives to bring in new dimensions to these crafts while holding onto its traditional roots. As a brand working closely with the local artisans, we work towards bringing this age-old Indian craft to customers all around the world and thereby helping the artisans improve their economic and social status. Together we grow.
