Festive gifting is becoming less about filling a box and more about choosing something the recipient will actually remember, use or keep. That shift is visible in the rise of artisanal objects, personalized curation and homeware that stays long after the mithai is finished. For Women Listed’s Festive Gifting Edit, the focus is on ten women-led brands with distinct gifting languages—from brass and silver-plated keepsakes to contemporary tableware, pooja pieces, hampers and design-led décor. This is not a ranking; each brand works for a different kind of festive brief. Explore more women-led home and lifestyle businesses through the Women Listed Home & Living directory.
1. The Wrap Studio — Shreya Jain
Ranchi-based The Wrap Studio was founded by Shreya Jain and has developed a particularly strong 2026 festive identity around objects meant to outlive the hamper. Brass trays, enamel diyas, wooden keepsake boxes, decorative trees and statement platters appear across its Diwali edits, with customization available for bulk and corporate gifting. It is one of the strongest choices here when the gift needs visual drama but also a second life as part of the recipient’s home.
2. POSH — Rajlaxmi Lodha
From Aurangabad, founder Rajlaxmi Lodha has built POSH around handmade tableware and home décor rather than conventional assortment hampers. Its gifting collections move across mugs, plates, platters, bowls, trays, votives and storage pieces, with customization and bulk gifting available. That makes POSH especially relevant for festive hosts, weddings and higher-value family gifts where a useful object is preferable to a mixed hamper. You can also find more about Rajlaxmi and connect with her on Women Listed.
3. Izzhaar — Ruchita Bansal
Gurugram-based Izzhaar gives festive gifting one of the widest design vocabularies in this selection. Founder Ruchita Bansal’s current Diwali collection spans trinket boxes, lanterns, candles, tea sets, platters, hampers and decorative keepsakes at multiple price points. The brand’s long-standing emphasis on utility makes it particularly suited to recipients who appreciate presentation but do not want a gift that disappears after the festival. It works equally well for personal, wedding and corporate occasions.
4. Gado Living — Ayesha Arora & Niki
Gurugram-based Gado Living was co-founded by Ayesha Arora and Niki around a shared interest in high-quality Indian-made homeware with a clean, global aesthetic. Its festive and gifting range includes brass gift sets, tealight holders, serveware and hosting pieces designed to stay in use after Diwali. Gado is a strong choice for design-conscious hosts and premium client gifting because the products feel like considered additions to a home, not festive merchandise created only for one season.
5. Siansh by Sunita Aggarwal — Sunita Aggarwal
Delhi-based Siansh by Sunita brings a more traditional Indian gifting language through silver-plated décor and pooja objects. Sunita Aggarwal’s range covers samai, urlis, diyas, Ganesh idols, photo frames, gift boxes, coasters and platters across several price bands. Many pieces begin in brass before being silver-plated and paired with resin or enamel detailing. It is especially relevant for Diwali, housewarmings and shagun gifting where symbolism and festive utility matter as much as presentation. Discover all about Sunita Agggarwal through her Women Listed Profile.
6. Creative Crazy — Nupur Todi Pandya
From Ahmedabad, Creative Crazy is founder Nupur Todi Pandya’s bespoke gifting and design studio, built around in-house packaging and products sourced from Indian artisans. Its festive work can combine brass, Pichwai-inspired art, candles, gourmet products and customized packaging rather than relying on a fixed catalogue. The brand suits buyers who want a colourful, contemporary hamper with a strong design hand. Its ability to work across budgets also makes it useful for both individual festive gifts and larger corporate lists.
7. Tohfaas — Ekta Khandelwal
Launched in Jaipur in late 2025 by Ekta Khandelwal, Tohfaas brings more than eight years of handicraft experience from EkCraftGallery into a dedicated gifting venture. Its festive service begins with the occasion and recipient, then builds the contents, colours and presentation around that brief. Current ideas include roli-chawal boxes, jute hampers and personalized diary sets. Tohfaas is well suited to buyers who value coordination and customization over choosing a ready-made box from a large product catalogue.
8. TIARIS — Monica Jolly
Based in Noida, TIARIS India is co-founded and led by Monica Jolly, who positions the business around premium, bespoke gifting. Its festive work covers Diwali, Holi, Teej, Lohri, Sankranti and Rakshabandhan alongside corporate, wedding, spiritual and sustainable collections. The tone is restrained rather than maximalist, making TIARIS a useful option when the brief calls for ceremonial or premium gifting that feels considered rather than crowded. Monica is also listed on Women Listed.
9. Faaya Gifting — Falguni Toprani
Mumbai-based Faaya Gifting was founded by Falguni Toprani around handcrafted home objects designed to be used rather than simply unboxed. Current gift sets include serving platters, candle bases, cheeseboards, bowls and barware created by Indian artisans and influenced by global design references. Faaya is especially strong for hosts, newly married couples and premium family gifting where the object itself should carry the value. It is less a hamper brand than a source for polished, keep-worthy home gifts.
10. Rrehmat Home Decor & Gifting — Sukhmani
New Delhi-based Rrehmat Home Decor & Gifting was founded by Sukhmani in 2025 and works across marble and brass décor, utility pieces and festive objects. Marble cake stands, tealight holders, urlis, agarbatti stands, diyas, brass bowls and religious décor give the brand a distinctly Indian home-gifting vocabulary. Rrehmat is a practical fit for Diwali and housewarming gifts where the buyer wants a decorative piece that still has a clear use in the home. Sukhmani is also listed on Women Listed so you can connect with her through her profile too.
What makes this edit useful is the contrast between the brands. The Wrap Studio and Izzhaar turn festive gifting into statement presentation; POSH, Gado and Faaya focus on objects meant to become part of the home; Siansh and Rrehmat draw more directly from Indian ceremonial and décor traditions; while Creative Crazy, Tohfaas and TIARIS build around curation and customization. The right festive gift therefore starts with what you want the recipient to keep, use or remember—not simply how full the box looks.
