The Lost Art of Handloom Weaving Rekindled by Tantuvi
Lose yourself in the magic of handlooms,
the glory of a hundred different textures and weaves.
Drape your body in the caress of handwoven silks and cottons, and bring to life the Indian tradition of the loom.
Tantuvi presents a melding of contemporary colours and styles with exclusive handloom designs.
Founded in 1998

Tantuvi which means ‘weaver’ in Sanskrit is an attempt to revive the dying weaving traditions of Benaras.
Our Reason to Exist
Tantuvi’s sole objective is to enable the weaver as an artist to preserve and revive his dying heritage and earn a comfortable livelihood. We enable the aesthetically inclined buyer with an opportunity to indulge her penchant for these beautiful woven works of art.
A Small Price to Pay
Tantuvi sarees carry a premium but they cannot be found in ordinary stores and boutiques. We believe in the value of preserving our age old heritage and weaving skills.
