About Us

Bringing authentic craftsmanship from Nepal and South Asia to your home.

Global Handcrafts AS is a Norway-based company sourcing handcrafted temples, pooja items, and traditional cultural products directly from skilled artisans, and delivering them to families across Norway and Europe.

Our story

Handcrafted, not mass-produced.

We started Global Handcrafts because we saw how hard it can be to find genuinely handcrafted temples, pooja items, and traditional pieces once you've settled far from home. Mass-produced imitations are easy to find; authentic, artisan-made pieces are not.

So we built direct relationships with artisans and workshops across Nepal and South Asia, and a storefront that makes it simple to bring their work into homes and places of worship across Norway and Europe, whether that's a small brass diya for a family altar or a fully custom mandap for a wedding.
