Pink Knots by Arushi Kathuria has unveiled its latest Rumi Utsav collection just in time as the festive season approaches. Rumi Utsav is a thoughtfully handcrafted series of wooden gifting trays that blend poetic elegance with timeless craftsmanship.

Celebrating the art of thoughtful gifting

Named with intention, Rumi draws inspiration from the famed mystic and poet whose words evoke depth, beauty, and emotion. Paired with Utsav, the Sanskrit term for celebration, Rumi Utsav encapsulates the soul of giving—gifts that carry meaning, memory, and the quiet joy of heartfelt connection.

Arushi Kathuria, founder of Pink Knots, was inspired by soulful poetry and joyous celebration. “The name embodies gifting as a heartfelt ritual—where every tray becomes a vessel of stories, emotions, and festive spirit,” she shares.

Spring has played a major role in shaping the visual and emotional language of the collection. Arushi says, “Spring is a season of renewal, hope, and blossoming beauty, which perfectly aligns with the themes of gifting and celebration. The collection’s floral motifs, gentle colour palettes, and light wooden textures reflect the freshness and optimism of springtime. Emotionally, it invites recipients to experience a sense of new beginnings and warmth, making each tray a symbol of life’s joyful moments.”

She sees the trays being used beyond the festive or wedding season. “They can be used as elegant serving trays, organisers for home or office, decorative pieces, or personalised gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, and special milestones,” she explains.

Each tray is handcrafted from premium wood by skilled rural artisans in North India. From carving to painting and polishing, every piece is unique and detailed. “The floral designs are inspired by nature and rendered with delicate care, offering a blend of durability and artistry,” adds Arushi.

Prices start at Rs 250. Available online.
