Gaanth

Fill a box, tie it in red.

Kraft, tissue and one length of ribbonSix slots to a box
Build a box

Six slots. You choose what goes in.

Every piece takes one, two or three slots. Tap a piece to drop it into the box, tap it again to take it out. When the box is full we close it and tie the ribbon — then it goes into your bag as the pieces it holds.

0 of 6 slots

We write your note by hand on the card inside the box. When you check out, paste it into “Note for the store” — that is where we read it.

Four shelves in the packing room

At the packing table

How a box is packed

The same four steps for one box or for two hundred.

  1. 01

    Line it

    Two sheets of tissue, folded so they spill over the rim and can fold back over the top.

  2. 02

    Fill it

    Each piece in its slot — the heaviest at the bottom, the mithai on top in its own tray.

  3. 03

    Write the card

    Your note, written by hand on Sanganer paper and tucked under the ribbon.

  4. 04

    Tie it

    One length of red satin, a double knot and a bow — the gaanth we are named for.
