Mashrufa Bashar, the owner of Kagojer Ghor Studios, spoke about how the business was a gift from her father, which grew into a personal passion and creative legacy of her own. She also highlighted what sets her pieces apart: rather than producing on a mass scale, each design is made in limited quantities, giving the collections an exclusive, boutique character and turning each piece into a luxurious object that feels personal and rare.

While the items boasted a classic charm, they also resonated with the unique identity and artistry of Bangladeshi craftsmanship, celebrating the skill and creativity of local artisans. The collection also extended beyond crockery, featuring handcrafted decoupage pieces that showcase the same attention to detail and artistic finesse.

With a blend of relaxed elegance and refined decorum, the atmosphere provided guests with a unique opportunity to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistic vision that define each collection. Set against the backdrop of a traditional high tea setting, the showcased pieces transcended their utility, transforming everyday tableware into stunning works of art.
