our story

Sixty years, one family

  1. 60 years in wool

    Where it began

    Kurus Collections began as Raktakali Handicrafts, built on sixty years of our father's work in Nepal's woolen craft: stacks of yarn, hand-knitted caps, and usually a dog asleep on the pile.

    Hand-knitted woolen caps piled around an artisan in the family workshop, a dog asleep beside him

  2. 30 years at the helm

    Carried forward

    For thirty years his daughter has led the organization. She learned every stitch, then added her own: crochet flowers, keyrings, pouches, and dresses for the little ones.

  3. 8 years as Kurus

    A new name, the same hands

    Eight years ago Raktakali Handicrafts became Kurus Collections. The name changed. The hands, the patience and the care did not.
