ASHIESH SHAH X RITU KUMAR

Yet another iconic collaboration -- the coming together of two icons -- the first lady of Indian fashion Ritu Kumar and Ashiesh Shah. The result -- an exquisite selection of furniture, tableware, wallpaper and upholstery inspired by the culturally rich landscapes of Amer, Jaisalmer and Kochi.

Distinct in style, the three collections comprise the jewel-toned Chandbagh line, inspired by the princely Amer; the dune-hued Desert line, a nod to the startling landscapes of Jaisalmer; and the Cochin collection, which presents an understated visual feast from the south. In the Cochin collection, Shah captures the essence of Kerala — the lush landscape, the minimalism of the traditional attire, and the understated architecture of the traditional homes. The Desert Collection takes its cue from the dunes of Jaisalmer while celebrating the versatility of the colour palette. Earthy hues of brown, beige, and maroon dominate this collection. Shah plays with scale and form to create elemental forms of textiles and dinnerware. For ‘Amer’, Shah adapts to the intricate architecture of the region, embodying the richness and royalty that is synonymous with the historical-cultural heritage of the royals, with a contemporary flair.
