"This light-filled shop is actually two stores, side-by-side. Founded by the entrepreneur Usha Bora in 2014, Jamini is a French-Indian lifestyle brand that taps the talents of artisans and craftspeople in her native Assam to produce hand-woven cushions, throws, table linens, bedding, kaftans, and sarongs using Indian techniques such as block printing, weaving, and embroidery. From homewares to womenswear and accessories, the collection highlights Indian craftsmanship in the foothills of Northeast India, Manipur, Bengal, and Orissa and pairs it with the kinds of chic and timeless pieces Parisians want most. If money's no object, go for the furnishings that are hand-woven in India, such as the charpoy, or traditional Indian daybed, crafted in Rajasthan and the block-printed woven mattresses that pair perfectly. Jamini has cultivated a following among French shoppers (in-store and online) who are looking for something more special and with a story of craft that inspires." - Lindsey Tramuta
