The Lohasmith is an attempt to create décor that celebrates craft but does so in a way that fits in seamlessly into the evolving lifestyle of the modern Indian.

Crafting Aesthetics

 

The brand was based on the idea that the modern Indian consumer's tastes have evolved to include a more global viewpoint, and that this had created a clear need for brands like The Lohasmith.

The Lohasmith traces its genesis to the time when Meghna and Karun Malik moved into their first home shortly after getting married. Karun had wanted to start something that made high-end decor products designed exclusively for India for some time, and it was this idea that culminated in the birth of the brand in 2016.

With Meghna's eye for clean, interesting design and Karun’s obsession with adherence to quality, together they make a formidable team. The product range includes decorative mirrors, wall art, accent furniture, wine & bar racks, table-top decor and garden products.

Within these categories, the brand sells a wide variety of decorative accessories including its signature test tube vase, candle holders with custom hand-made candles, scented candles, picture frames, center-piece and fruit bowls and unique table sculptures.

Art Rovert

Art always returns to nature one way or another, whether it’s figurative or abstract and the body of work of designers Zim&Zou, more than proves this theory. In reality, their work which is rooted in story-telling and acute creativity even transcends the peripheries of art.
