About Urban Shopee
Urban Shopee is more than an online craft store — it’s a movement to revive and celebrate India’s handmade legacy.
Based in Pune, we collaborate directly with artisans who’ve spent generations perfecting their craft — from Barmer wood carving and Blue Pottery painting, to Epoxy Resin art and Hand Block printing.
Every piece we offer carries the story of an artisan, their skill, and the rich cultural heritage of India.

Sustainability: We promote eco-friendly materials and fair trade practices.
Cultural Pride: Each craft reflects the timeless soul of India’s artistic heritage.
