About Radhika

Mother of three from Nawalparasi; works the morning shift around school hours. Like the rest of our artisan network, Radhika is paid above the regional industry rate and receives steady year-round work — a deliberate departure from the piece-work model that dominates much of South Asia’s handicraft export trade.

Craft & specialism

Radhika’s focus is Sewing, garments. She is part of a 50-plus-person artisan team that hand-makes every product Student Handicrafts exports to importers, retailers, and private-label brands across 80+ countries. Every piece carries an origin card listing the artisan and the district of Nepal where it was made — buyers who source from us can verify, in writing, who made what they sell.
