From Bags To Kitchenware: You Get The Quirkiest Of Everything At This Store, Starting At INR 180

The Bombay Store has roots that can be traced back to the Swadeshi movement, and have long celebrated India’s culture and heritage through their curation of goods. Their range of products is diverse: clothing, artefacts, fashion accessories, books, home decor, tea, bath and beauty products from all across India.

If bags are your thing, you’re in for a treat. We found really cute donut and smiley-face beaded pouches for INR 295, and slightly larger beaded ones for sunglasses and the like, at INR 395. Their handwoven wristlets are conveniently priced at INR 180, and larger embroidered and tassled bags start from INR 995. For special occasions, their embroidered batuas start at INR 800, and would make a great addition to your outfit.

Treat yourself to some desi bling at their jewellery counter. We really love their selection of silver-set {92.4% real silver} precious gem earrings, which start from INR 750 onwards. There are of course, anklets, necklaces, and costume jewellery available as well.

Not as piggy as the name suggests, their handcrafted leather coin banks come in different animal shapes like cat, owl, monkey, tiger, sparrow, and giraffe. Priced at INR 450, we think it’s a colourful and quirky way to start saving up for your next vacay.

Take your monsoon gear to the next level with The Bombay Store’s signature range of umbrellas! Available in a variety of vibrant graphic prints, they’ll add so much more personality to your everyday life than those boring black ones. Bonus points for these being the traditional wooden-handled umbrellas, not folding ones. Priced at around INR 925, they’re currently available at a 40% discount.

All about aesthetics, their selection of home decor ranges from vintage-style clocks to hand-carved sandalwood elephants, brass idols, and everything in between. We particularly love the brass bell chimes, priced between INR 360 to INR 1275, for their pretty, tinkly sound. For the messy-at-home, their miniature wooden chest of drawers range from INR 995 {hand-painted} to INR 1500 {with embossed metalwork}. Brighten up your room with a pop of colour from their hanging decor {which comes with either mini stuffed parrots or elephants}, priced from INR 315 upwards.

You know you’ve reached adulthood once you start buying your own kitchenware, amirite? Bring a taste of nostalgia to your kitchen with these contemporary-style barnis: a chutney jar for INR 300, maa kaa achaar jar at INR 549, and a pair of namak shakers for INR 600. If you’re big on entertaining, their shot-glass thela set makes a fun addition to any home bar: INR  495 per pair of cutting chai shot glasses {with graphic design prints} and INR 1150 for the base wagon.

Continue your adulting with their beautiful bedspread sets – 100% cotton – in Ikkat and block prints with matching pillow covers, starting at INR 2500 for a double bed. They’re also available in silk and brocade, but at a higher cost – starting from INR 6000.
