From artisan traditions to contemporary designs, Obeetee carpets honour India's heritage
-

“Craftsmanship will always hold its own in the world, but to stay meaningful, we must keep growing and evolving,” says Angelique Dhama, CEO of Obeetee Carpets (Retail). With over a century of weaving stories into their carpets, Obeetee isn't simply creating floor coverings; they're nurturing a heritage that speaks of India's rich cultural tapestry and artistry. Founded- ed in 1920 in the weaving heartland of Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh, Obeetee was the brainchild of three Englishmen who wanted to introduce India's timeless craft to global audiences. A hundred years later, its carpets have traveled far, gracing homes, palaces, and even the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi. “Obeetee is a celebration of India's cultural soul. It's an honor to carry this legacy forward,” says Rudra Chatterjee, Chairman of Obeetee.
