Meet the maker

The Dassie Artisan Henri cushion is handmade by artisan Pushpa Devi. She learned her skills when she married into the business. She was taught to loom by her in-laws who welcomed her into the business when they welcomed her into the family five years ago. Outside of work, Pushpa spends a lot of her time cooking for the family as well as running around after her two little ones, aged 3 and 5. She enjoys playing ball with them and occasionally practices yoga and meditation when all the ladies get together for community festivals.
