Frequently Asked Questions

Welcome to GulabiSa. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about our products, orders, shipping, returns, payments, and more.
What is GulabiSa?

GulabiSa is a contemporary brand inspired by the colours, patterns, and textile traditions of Rajasthan. We bring block-printed textiles into everyday, modern living through thoughtfully designed products.

Where does GulabiSa ship?

We currently ship across India.

International shipping is not available at the moment.

Are GulabiSa products handmade?

Our products celebrate traditional textile techniques, and many pieces feature handcrafted elements. Because of the nature of the printing and textile processes, slight variations in colour, print placement, texture, or finishing may occur. These are natural characteristics and are not considered manufacturing defects.

What are GulabiSa tote bags made of?

Our tote bags are made from 100% cotton.

Yes. Our current tote bags are block-printed.

Will my product look exactly like the pictures on the website?

There may be minor variations in colour, print placement, texture, or finishing. These variations are natural to the product and its printing process and are not considered defects.

Please also keep in mind that colours can appear slightly different depending on your screen and display settings.

Are GulabiSa tote bags washable?

Yes. Our tote bags can be hand washed or machine washed.

For best results:
