Our Peepal Haveli Story
Our Story shares the inspiration behind Peepal Haveli. For business and company information, please visit our About Us page.
Gifts Rooted in Indian Craft.
Peepal Haveli began with a simple memory - the kind that stays softly pressed between the years. A mother opening a wooden cupboard, its shelves lined with neatly folded shawls. The soft rustle of wool, the shimmer of silk borders saved for special occasions, the quiet familiarity of home woven into everyday moments.
As the world has grown faster and more digital, the beauty of considered design and enduring textiles feels increasingly rare. Peepal Haveli was built to honour that sensibility - through thoughtfully chosen shawls and stoles inspired by India’s rich textile traditions, designed to fit effortlessly into modern wardrobes.
Where Heritage Inspires Every Piece
India’s textile history is among the oldest and most intricate in the world. At Peepal Haveli, our collections draw inspiration from this heritage - from the visual precision of Kani-inspired patterns to the layered elegance of Jamawar motifs, the warmth of fine wool and the fluid drape of silk blends.
Rather than replicating historic processes, we focus on design language, pattern and aesthetic influence, reinterpreted through contemporary production techniques for modern living.
Each piece reflects:
- timeless design influences rooted in Indian textile traditions
- intricate patterning and refined detailing
- thoughtful colour palettes chosen for versatility
- an understated elegance designed for everyday wear and gifting
We believe true luxury is quiet - found in intention, restraint and design that endures.
The Meaning of Peepal Haveli
Our name brings together two symbols deeply rooted in Indian memory and culture.
The Peepal Tree - a silent witness, a place of gathering, reflection and shared stories.
The Haveli - carved doors, sunlit courtyards, layered textiles and echoes of family history.
Together, Peepal Haveli reflects what we stand for - heritage as inspiration, warmth as philosophy, and the art of gifting pieces rooted in Indian craft.
Curated, Not Collected
Peepal Haveli does not believe in mass production.
We believe in thoughtful curation.
Each design is selected in small quantities - chosen for its aesthetic, material quality and timeless appeal. Our collections are intentionally limited, allowing us to focus on detail, finish and presentation rather than scale.
A Peepal Haveli piece is special because:
- designs are selected for individuality, not trends
- every collection is intentionally limited
- pieces are presented with care and context
- quality and design integrity always come first
This is slow sensibility, reimagined for modern life.
Crafted in India. Curated in the UK.
