Talwar adds, “Customers often request spacious bags that match their outfits, with shell and ghungroo detailing customised to their cholis. Prices range from ₹2,000 to ₹8,000, and we also accept bulk wedding orders.”

Mehta adds, “Mobile belt pouches, sling pouches and Kutchi potlis featuring embroidery, mirror work, coins and tassels are our bestsellers. Belt pouches cost ₹1,050– ₹1,500 and slings ₹1,250– ₹2,500. The heritage patch takes a month to make, followed by three days of finishing.”
