It pains me to write this line, but we’re shutting down Shilpiyon.
Soyam, Maitri and I started the journey in 2020 out of our sheer love for crafts, with a vision to rejuvenate the artisans. After almost three years, due to our lack of skills, geographical distance, and a need for huge capital, we decided to shut down the operations. Yes, we could have raised money. But then again, it’s not something that we wanted to do with Shilpiyon.
We learnt a lot and met some great artisans, craft enthusiasts, and fellow founders. And there’s a lot more to learn. Some of us will still be in this field. And who knows, maybe someday, Shilpiyon will rise again.
In the meantime, if you’re a previous customer, a craft enthusiast or have any relevant queries, you can reach us here.
