Banjanan’ story starts like many great adventures do: unexpectedly, seven thousand miles from home and with a bolt of inspiration.


After two decades leading prestigious design teams in NYC, founder Caroline Weller found herself living in India, a place humming with new sights, colors, traditions and textures.


The daughter of a magician with an eye for uncommon wonders, Caroline began to weave together inspiration from the rich scenes around her, stories from her far-flung travels across the globe, and fantastic visions from her own imagination to create prints and patterns imbued with wild magic.


Over time, Caroline formed close partnerships with local artisans carrying forth the torch of traditional techniques, making prints by hand, or using generations-old looms to spin luxurious, hand designed textiles. She works closely with makers of time-revered craft in India, giving her creations a timeless, heirloom quality made to last a lifetime of adventures.


Banjanan is her collection of wearable works of art, all made the beautifully slow way: by hand.

After so many years in New York, I started to get the feeling everything was becoming so homogenized. But here in Jaipur, it’s the opposite—everything is slow. Some fabrics take weeks or a month to finish, and I thought, ‘What happened to the idea that something worth having is worth waiting for?
