About

For the small village of Bihar, metalworking is not just a means of livelihood–it’s a way ofpreserving a valuable cultural heritage. Shahabuddin is a master artisan with an extraordinary gift for this challenging art form. Years ago, he started his workshop with a vision of crafting a better future for his family and families like his. But in their small village, opportunities for growth were few. So Shahabuddin and his Artisans took a brave step, leaving behind their familiar surroundings and traveling to Delhi in search of a thriving marketplace. In Delhi, they set up their workshop, pouring their heart and soul into creating unique, intricate pieces of metal jewelry. And through their dedication, Shahabuddin’s dream of using this craft to elevate those around him has become a reality. Today, the workshop’s creations are a symbol of hope and a testament to the power of a shared vision.
