Meet The Artist Behind The Masterpiece: My name is Danish and I come from the state of Uttar Pradesh. I belong to a weaver's family. My father was a very hard-working man, and he worked so hard to make sure he gave us the best education. He believed that education is one of the most important assets in life, and this has really proven true as we look back today.

At times, I remember that things were not the best financially, but this never affected my father, and he continued to do what he does best - weaving. After I got my education, I followed suit! I helped my father in his work. I learned from him and slowly we started on our own. Although we are the 5th generation of weavers, we were always working under someone. Finally, we had the courage to start on our own, and I am glad to say that we have received many accolades for our work from our customers. We are now able to send our products overseas, and people have really started to recognize us.
