Awadh

The Awadh collection is born from the grandeur of Lucknow — a city that perfected the arts of embroidery, music, and elegant living. Every piece in this collection carries the thread-work legacy of Zardozi craftsmen who have practiced their art in the bylanes of Chowk for generations.

“Every piece carries the memory of a place, the skill of a hand, and the warmth of a home.”

House of Sissendi · Our Story

House of Sissendi is an endeavour to translate the spiritual, architectural and traditional motifs of Awadh, Kashi, Chamba and — going forward — other cultural centres of India into portable, tactile forms, mirroring the way sacred and exquisite symbolism has always moved between streets, gateways, and homes.

House of Sissendi takes its name, and its sense of purpose, from the Sissendi estate of Awadh. Explore the full collection, inspired by the architecture of Awadh, Kashi and beyond, in the products available on this website.

The Awadh Collection

The Awadh Collection

Inspired by the grandeur of Lucknow — the city of nawabs, kebabs, and exceptional craft — the Awadh collection channels the opulence of Mughal courts into handcrafted home objects.

The Kashi Collection

The Kashi Collection

Kashi — the eternal city of Varanasi — holds within its ghats and temples the oldest living craft traditions of India. The Kashi collection is an ode to this sacred place. Temple rose silks. Brass work that catches the light like prayer. Every piece, a meditation on beauty.

Anandvan: A Collection Carried Out of the Forest of Bliss

Long before Varanasi had a name that fit on a map, it had a name that fit a feeling. Hindu tradition holds that the city was first known not as a city at all, but as a forest — Anandavana, the Forest of Bliss. It is the name from which House of Sissendi's new collection of enamel platters takes both its title and its imagery.
