Our Story

About Prāna Collective

Welcome to our journey of craftsmanship, sustainability, and timeless design. Our story begins in the heart of India, where skilled artisans handcraft each piece with passion and precision. We believe in the power of tradition and the beauty of natural materials, which is why our rugs are made from the finest wool, jute, and cotton.

Our commitment goes beyond creating beautiful rugs. We aim to bring a touch of Indian heritage into homes across the Australian market, offering pieces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also sustainably produced. By choosing our rugs, you support the rich traditions of Indian craftsmanship and contribute to a greener planet.

Join us in celebrating the artistry, heritage, and sustainable practices that define our collections.

Our Roots

Prāna Collective takes its name from the Sanskrit word 'Prāna', meaning life force. Each rug carries with it the life force of the artisan who has handcrafted it, transferring their positive energy and good vibes to your home. Our artisans infuse every piece with their dedication, skill, and cultural heritage, making each rug not just a product, but a vibrant testament to centuries-old craftsmanship. This connection between creator and owner breathes new life into your living spaces, fostering a sense of warmth and well-being.
