The History

Bengal’s crafts, boxed to give

A Purva Heritage gift box is a small collection: one craft at its heart, often paired with a pair of hand-carved wooden tealight holders, bedded in crinkle paper inside a rigid box that carries our label. Nothing in it is mass-made — the basket was coiled in Jhargram, the tray painted freehand with alpana, the necklace cast by the lost-wax method in Bankura.

In Bengal, a festival gift has always been something to keep and use — a brass thali, a painted kulo, a basket for the puja flowers. Our boxes follow that idea: every piece is meant for the table, the shelf or the wardrobe, not the bin.

Each box is assembled to order, so colours and contents can be changed, and a note can be tucked inside.

Gift Boxes

Corporate, wedding & festive gifting

For orders of 10 boxes or more we can mix and match contents, change basket and box colours, add a printed message card or a logo sleeve, and ship to multiple addresses across India and abroad. Tell us the occasion, the quantity and the budget per box, and we will put together a quote.

Where it comes from

The pieces in our gift boxes come from the craft clusters we already work with across West Bengal: Sabai grass from Jhargram, brass and Dokra from Bankura and Bardhaman, terracotta from Panchmura, and alpana-painted woodcraft from painters across rural Bengal. Buying a box sends work to several artisan families at once.

  • Crafts from Jhargram, Bankura, Panchmura & Bardhaman
  • Made by women weavers, potters, painters & metal-casters
  • Custom contents, colours & logo sleeves for 10+ boxes

How it’s made

  1. 01

    Choose the craft

    Each box is built around one handmade hero piece from an artisan cluster in Bengal.

  2. 02

    Made to order

    The pieces are woven, painted or cast for your order, so colours can be matched.

  3. 03

    Pack by hand

    Every piece is nested in crinkle paper in a rigid, compartmented Purva Heritage box.

  4. 04

    Note & dispatch

    A message card is added if you wish, and the box is cartoned and shipped.

Caring for your gift box

Each box contains natural, handmade materials. Keep grass and wood dry and out of long direct sun, wipe painted and brass pieces with a soft dry cloth, and never leave a lit tealight unattended. Care notes for each piece are on its product page. The box itself is sturdy enough to keep and reuse.
