Our Team
Hi! I'm Katherine
I'm very happy to welcome you to House of Wandering Silk: my passion project & ever-evolving, all-consuming labour of love for well over a decade.
​
Together with Maria & Reena, our little team in Delhi works with dozens of artisan partners across India (meet them here!) to create what I *humbly* think are some of the loveliest textile-led clothing you'll come across.
