Rhaa was born from a passion for creating cozy, inviting spaces through the simple beauty of handcrafted lampshades.

Our journey began with a project and evolved into a commitment to bring the warmth and charm of lamplight to every home, promoting well-being and a sense of serenity.

The story of Rhaa began on a balmy summer evening in Mumbai, the City of Dreams. A young woman named Manushi sat on her balcony, a discarded floor lamp and a stack of vibrant Korean paper at her feet. A thoughtful gift from a dear friend who had traveled to Seoul, the paper was an exquisite collection of delicate textures and intricate patterns, each sheet imbued with the rich cultural heritage of Korea.

Inspired by the beauty and craftsmanship of the paper, Manushi embarked on a whimsical project, hoping to breathe new life into the neglected lamp. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the bustling cityscape, she carefully crafted a lampshade, her hands guided by intuition and a newfound passion. When she finally placed the finished shade atop the lamp and switched it on, the room was bathed in a soft, warm glow, transforming the ordinary space into a haven of tranquility.

This enchanting transformation ignited a spark within Manushi. She began experimenting with different fabrics, patterns, and shapes, her imagination fueled by the rich cultural heritage and vibrant colors of her surroundings. She envisioned lampshades that not only enhanced the aesthetics of a room but also fostered a sense of well-being and connection to the natural world.

Word of Manushi's unique lampshades spread quickly, and soon friends and family were clamoring for their own custom creations. Recognizing the potential to turn her passion into a purposeful venture, Manushi launched Rhaa, a brand dedicated to illuminating homes with thoughtfully designed, hand-crafted lampshades.
