This purse is perfect for those who carry their coins with care, their style with ease, and their values in support of traditional Indian craftsmanship.

The Story Behind the Dance
Dance has always been an integral part of India’s storytelling tradition. Across regions, communities express joy, devotion, and courtship through folk dances—from Garba in Gujarat and Bihu in Assam to Bhangra in Punjab. The dancing couple motif featured on this coin purse is inspired by these lively expressions of human connection and celebration.

Rendered in vibrant colors with traditional costumes, the design celebrates unity, festivity, and the timeless bond between movement and emotion. This isn’t just a purse—it’s a slice of cultural memory, carried with grace.

A Peek into Shantiniketan Craftsmanship
The legacy of Shantiniketan leathercraft goes back to the 1940s. Encouraged by Rabindranath Tagore’s call to preserve rural art forms, local artisans began to develop a unique style of leatherwork that involves hand embossing, natural dyeing, and burnishing.

Creating this dancing couple coin purse is a step-by-step labor of love:

Vegetable-tanned leather is sourced and prepared by hand.

The design is hand-embossed, a delicate process that etches each detail into the leather surface.

Using eco-friendly dyes, artisans hand-paint the couple’s attire, faces, and surrounding motifs.

A lacquer coat is applied for shine and durability.

The purse is then carefully stitched together and fitted with a smooth zipper and soft inner lining.

Every piece bears slight variations—signs of the artisan’s touch, and evidence that no two purses are exactly alike.

Compact, colorful, and expressive, it fits easily into your handbag or travel pouch.

Why Choose This Over Machine-Made Alternatives
Machine-made leather goods may offer uniformity, but they can’t replicate the heartfelt imperfections and cultural identity of a handcrafted Shantiniketan product. This purse is more than a utility—it is a keepsake, a story, a piece of art passed down through the hands of a skilled artisan.

Each purchase contributes directly to the continuation of these traditional techniques and supports a more ethical, small-scale economy.
