Anantaya is a Jaipur design house founded by the husband-and-wife team Ayush and Geetanjali Kasliwal, who built the business around collaboration with master artisans across India rather than factory production. The company's stated philosophy holds that objects carry memory, becoming, when shaped with purpose, "vessels of meaning, culture, and quiet impact." Its collections span tableware, lighting, furniture and home decor, produced using natural, responsibly sourced materials and rooted in centuries-old regional craft traditions reinterpreted for contemporary use. The Kasliwals' work has drawn sustained recognition: Anantaya has received the UNESCO Seal of Excellence on four separate occasions, the World Craft Council Award of Excellence in 2022, and was named Craft Brand of the Year the same year. Ayush Kasliwal individually holds an EDIDA Designer of the Year title (2013) and a Lexus Design Award (2019), while Geetanjali Kasliwal has received the COWE India Excellence Award (2022) and recognition from FICCI FLO for women's entrepreneurship. In 2018, Architectural Digest named the practice among the 100 Most Influential Design Firms in the Indian Subcontinent. The Jaipur store operates from the Narain Niwas Palace complex, pairing the Kasliwals' design-led approach with the city's living craft economy of block carvers, metalworkers and weavers.

Best for Block-printed quilts, cushions and table linen
Rasa was founded in Jaipur in 1998 by Madhulika Singh, a textile-trained graduate of India's National Institute of Fashion Technology and National Institute of Design, and her partner Manish Tibrewal. The pair moved to Jaipur specifically to be close to the city's block-printing trade, spending their first year making experimental artworks while deliberately steering away from the design conventions common at the time. Rasa's process grew out of hands-on textile work rather than a pre-set collection plan: Tibrewal set up and ran a single block-printing table, mixing colors and testing combinations, while Singh directed the visual language of the patterns. The label's earliest production ran through one block printer and one pattern master who doubled as tailor — a genuinely small operation before it scaled. That first collection found a place at the Qutab Colonnade in Delhi, an early foothold that helped establish Rasa's name outside Jaipur. The brand's C-Scheme retail location, at Plot No. S-55 on Ashok Marg, opened in 2008, a decade after the label's founding, giving Jaipur its own dedicated Rasa storefront rather than relying solely on outside stockists. Rasa's hallmark remains hand block-printed textiles — silks, linens and specially woven cloth turned into bed linens, cushions, quilts and table linens — each pattern developed and printed using the traditional block-printing methods the founders set out to work directly with when they first arrived in the city.
