welcome to mianzi’s journal: the seed

We have created a quiet corner where you can find sustainable home design inspiration, and be conscious about our planet and lifestyle while respecting the millennium-old culture, traditions, and heritage. We hope you cozy up, read awhile, and learn more about the sustainable aspirations of Mianzi, the stories sung in the planet-loving products made with love, our family of heritage artisans and so much more. For those seeking to live in a way that is considered kind; in a home with a truly clean conscience - this is the place for you.

  • hands

    supporting artisans + craft

    Ethically handmade by heritage artisans of rural India, our collection encourages dignified work for skillful yet struggling women and vulnerable craft communities in a supportive gender-neutral environment.

    craft + tech

    With a firm belief in hedonistic sustainability, we are developing craft futuristically with the intervention of technology - innovating it meaningfully to provide an environment-friendly alternative - keeping it sustainable and handmade and yet standing stable on the world stage.

  • women

    empowering women

    We work with rural craftswomen to support local employment and skill development opportunities. This helps them make honorable living conditions for themselves and support their families while doing what they love.
