Takshni means chisel in Sanskrit and we manifest thoughts into tangible art using natural materials. Takshni’s pieces defines each piece with reason for its existence, to be chosen as per aspiration, taste and inclinature. Takshni also plans to empower artisans and aims to give back as much as we can to the regions of source through cooperative structures and fair pricing.
Takshni’s philosophy encourages rustic simplicity and understated elegance. they focus on celebrating the way things are rather than how they should be. Rough textures, minimally processed goods, natural materials, and subtle hues; is Takshni. We shift the balance from doing to being to appreciating rather than perfecting. We value craftsmanship, we re-use and we believe in minimalism. Takshni’s signature can be best described as minimalism with craftsmanship.
Richa Uppal in 2014 founded her firm to showcase exclusive sculptures and wall installations under the brand name Takshni. The name ‘Takshni’ fits the core identity of the brand which includes minimalistic lifestyle characterized by good taste and elegant, sustainable, handcrafted artefacts with exceptional quality and craftsmanship.

They are created using nothing else but a set of gifted hands and some basic tools and equipment by the artisans residing in three states of India namely Chhattisgarh, Orissa and West Bengal. Takshni is conjured to build a brand of India to develop its strong identity in the global arena that encapsulates India’s special attributes and creates a definable profile as well as bring the social and commercial benefits to the artisan settlements. The vision is to produce a clear identity which will competitively position craft of lost wax casting from India in the global market place as a distinct brand rather than a mere ‘made in India’ merchandise. We obtain our competitive advantage through lower cost since Takshni utilizes the potential of the skilled craftsmen inhabiting in rural villages of India to create contemporary art.
