OUR STORY
ABOUT ZIVANA HANDCRAFTS INDIA
Zivana Handcrafts India is a fair trade project that sells handcrafts online - made by women in Southern India. We are committed to providing a platform for these talented artisans to showcase their skills and creativity. Our mission is to offer unique, ethically-made jewelry, home goods, and accessories that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Southern India.
Zivana was born out of a passion to empower women — to rise with dignity, discover their potential, and create a sustainable future through skill and creativity.
Our founder, Chrysolite, brings over 20 years of experience in the corporate sector, combining professional excellence with a deep commitment to social transformation. Her heart for women’s empowerment led to the creation of a network that equips women with entrepreneurial and business skills, enabling them to turn creativity into sustainable livelihoods.
At Zivana, we believe true empowerment begins with opportunity. We provide training, mentorship, and workspace access, helping women learn, earn, and lead with confidence. Each handcrafted product tells a story of resilience, beauty, and purpose — a testimony of women rebuilding their lives and contributing to a brighter tomorrow.
Zivana — Radiance in every hue, and hope in every thread.
