See the complete H Project Uncrate India collection »

A few months ago our editor-in-chief, Bernadette Morra, joined Waris Ahluwalia and Alexandra Weston, Holt Renfrew’s director of brand strategy, on a tour of India. The focus of the trip was to curate a selection of one-of-a-kind items for H Project’s Uncrate India collection and, now that it’s hit Holt Renfrew stores across Canada, we’re sharing all 50+ items with you!

The H Project Uncrate India collection includes block-print textiles, printed notebooks with playful designs, batik silk scarves and leather goods. The items come from more than 16 designers who were scouted in Delhi, Jaipur, Udaipur and Mandawa by Ahluwalia and Weston.

In the age of the selfie, Waris Ahluwalia is the world’s most reluctant subject. In Gap ads and New York social diaries, the actor/jewellery designer appears deadpan and remote. But travelling with him in his native India, I discover a cheerful, easygoing guy with a deep appreciation for handmade things. It’s a passion he shares with Alexandra Weston, Holt Renfrew’s director of brand strategy, who asked Ahluwalia to help curate an “Uncrate India” collection for H Project (available April 1), a section within Holt Renfrew stores offering “extraordinary products with extraordinary stories.” I was invited to tag along on their treasure hunt. Journeying through Rajasthan, seeing expert hands bringing jewellery, scarves and wooden boxes to life was heart-warming for us all. As Weston puts it, “Supporting craft in any way you can is the most important thing you can do, because craft is the way out of poverty.”
