About Us
At Indico we select beautiful pieces crafted by skilled artisans from certified Fairtrade suppliers, small Co-operatives and family businesses, charities and N.G.O's based mainly in the rural areas of majestic Rajasthan, India.
💟
We are an independent business based in the pretty Cotswold town of Cricklade. Our little shop is at
89a High Street Cricklade, SN6 6DF.
Indico began when a visit to India some years ago developed into a passion for the vibrant textiles, fantastic handicrafts and intricate designs found there and we started to make contacts and create our collection. Starting out at various local fairs and markets around Wiltshire and the Cotswolds, we started to sell our gorgeous hand-crafted wares. This eventually led us to creating our online shop.
💟
At IndiCo we are very passionate about supporting the skilled craftsmen and women who create these beautiful items using ancient techniques handed down through the generations. This also helps to preserve traditional methods such as block printing, phulkari and aari embroidery, bandhani dyeing, mirror work as well as certain ceramic, wood and metal work processes. Many people living in rural areas of India rely on the income from the manufacture of handicrafts to support themselves and their families.
We are very proud to work with Sambhali Trust, an N.G.O based in Jodhpur that we have visited, which offers disadvantaged women hope, via education, alongside training in handicraft skills, with a view to becoming independent and self- employed. We are also very pleased to support other organisations with whom we have connected such as Bagru Textiles near Jaipur, who run a traditional textile block printing co-operative which employs many people in the village.
