Kiran Millwood Hargrave once said, “India is a place where color is doubly bright. Pinks that scald your eyes, blues you could drown in.” Indeed, India’s vibrant tapestry is an enchanting display of colors and cultures, and perhaps nowhere does this ring truer than in the fabled Pink City of Jaipur.
The ‘Jaipur‘ collection by Within weaves an untold story of this city. Jaipur, home to a rich cultural heritage, boasts majestic architecture, colorful rituals, and age-old crafts. It’s a city where history and modernity harmoniously coexist, where every street tells a tale, and where colors sing.
Within’s ‘Jaipur’ collection is a celebration of Jaipur’s spirit, drawing inspiration from iconic landmarks, such as the magnificent City Palace and the ethereal Hawa Mahal (the Palace of Breeze), with its honeycombed façade, this collection pays homage to the city’s architectural prowess.
Jaipur is not just known for its architecture, but also for its skilled artisans and the timeless craft of blue pottery. This traditional craft is seen in the grand palaces and the humble homes of potters who create everything from pots and plates to intricate knobs. The pieces within the collection are immaculately finished in aged brass, adorned with stunning stone inlays, and overlaid with the elegance of white marble. The eye-catching lapis lazuli and mother of pearl further elevate the aesthetic. This Art Furniture collection includes seven pieces, ranging from a sideboard to a pendant light and even a hand-knotted carpet.
What sets ‘Jaipur’ apart is its ability to blend tradition with modernity seamlessly. Each piece is handmade in India, crafted with a deep respect for heritage, yet designed for contemporary spaces.
