Our Sipahi rug tells a powerful story of a painful Colonial legacy. Inspired by design traditions from Afghanistan, that not only capture poignant beauty but are also a reminder of the painful history of their country, Sipahi adapts the tradition in an Indian context. Rendered in the same folk-inspired style, it is a reflection of India’s experience with colonialism, post 1857, and captures the uniform worn by many Indians who served their British masters.
