About Us

About our founder, Abdul G. Tapa:
I was born in the Himalayas, in Kashmir, now part of India. In my many trips to visit my family back home, I met many skilled artists who produce exquisite goods. Yet, I had never seen these items in the U.S.A. Artisans in India have trouble reaching our markets due to poverty, poor information, and the disadvantage of being smaller workshops in a world of mass distribution. Yet they are capable of making beautiful high-quality goods.

I have traveled through the back alleys and through the smaller villages of India, meeting with artists and their families, producing high quality goods in cottage industry settings. Himalayan International Trading is devoted solely to carrying the works of Indian artisans, especially disadvantaged artisans, and selling them as inexpensively as possible. No child labor is used in the production of our products. Our products are produced using ancient methods and techniques, passed down through the generations. Timeless designs made from high quality wools and silks.
