About

Made by human hands. Shaped by generations.

Every piece we sell carries the story of the artisan who made it; a weaver, a potter, a carpenter; working with materials and methods passed through their family for generations.

Our Story

Indu House began with a simple frustration: too much of what filled our homes was anonymous. Mass-produced. Disposable. We wanted something different, objects with a provenance, a process, a person behind them.

So I returned home to Indonesia and found exactly that. Rattan weavers sitting at their doorsteps chatting with friends. Terracotta potters shaping clay the same way their parents and grandparents had done. Carpenters breathing new life into reclaimed teak. Each piece a genuine one-off because no two hands ever make exactly the same thing twice.

We bring their work directly to you. No middlemen, no warehouses full of unsold stock. Just beautiful objects, made slowly, built to last.

Natural materials. Nothing synthetic. Ever.

RATTAN

Harvested sustainably from Southeast Asian forests. Woven by hand into baskets, bowls, trays, and storage that only get better with age.

TERRACOTTA

Hand-thrown by Javanese potters using traditional techniques. Each vase carries the subtle marks of the wheel, proof it was made, not manufactured.

BAMBOO

One of the world's fastest-growing plants. Woven into wall decor and baskets that bring texture and warmth to any wall or shelf.

RECLAIMED WOOD

Salvaged teak and suar wood given a second life. The grain, the knots, the patina are all part of the story each piece tells.

Meet the Makers

The Weavers

Working from their homes, or gathered together in a community, our rattan weavers produce every basket, bowl, and tray by hand using techniques taught to them by their parents. Each pattern is a family signature.

The Potters

Trained in hand-throwing from childhood alongside their grandparents and parents our potters in Yogyakarta shape each vase from locally-sourced clay. The firing process gives every piece its unique matte finish and quiet warmth before finished in unique traditional methods.

The Carpenters

Our carpenters in Java source reclaimed teak from old Javanese structures like the Joglo, transforming wood that might otherwise be discarded, into stools, vases, and sculptural objects with genuine character

What we stand for

Slow by design

We don't chase trends or volume. Our collection grows carefully, only adding pieces we'd genuinely want in our own homes. Each one made with intention, not stockpiled in a warehouse.

Fair and Direct

We work with our makers directly. No agents, No intermediaries and No factories.

Made with intention

Natural materials age beautifully. A rattan basket doesn't go in the bin after a season. A terracotta vase gets better as it develops its patina. We make things worth keeping.

"In a world of automation and synthetics, we want to bring human-made back into the heart of our homes."
