Gulbhahar exists as evidence to the enduring magic of traditional juttis. Gulbhahar rests in the center of a rich cultural craftscape of India. Here old traditions collide with modern fashion aesthetics. These modestly simple handmade artisanal wearable works of art are much more than footwear. Punjabi juttis at Gulbhahar are a symbol of the essence of Indian craftsmanship and the painstaking effort of skilled craftspeople. They have honed their skills over generations.
The Pillar of Excellence
The process of making Punjabi juttis at Gulbhahar starts with the judicious choice of high-quality material. Skilled artisans scrutinize every strip of leather with the trained eye of an individual. They know that excellence cannot be sacrificed. The leather, procured from reliable sources, is carefully prepared to meet the stringent standards. They adhered to the standards set in place by Gulbhahar since its establishment.
The process begins early in the morning when craftsmen meet in well-lit workshops. Their tools laid out in perfectly stacked order. This is a sign of years of self-discipline practice. Every pair of traditional juttis takes about 8-12 hours of focused handwork. Sometimes even more, depending on the complexity of the design and ornaments used.
The Masterful Process
The craft of making conventional Punjabi juttis at Gulbhahar is done in techniques handed down the generations. Experienced artisans start by cutting the leather designs with a precision. This precision is derived only from decades of practice. Each turn, each line is measured not only with rulers, but with a sort of instinctual feel for how the finished jutti must feel on the foot.
The stitching is where the real artistry of creating traditional juttis comes through. Strong, specially treated threads are used by artisans in adhering to traditional hand-stitching techniques. They will wear as well as provide that flexible comfort for which these shoes are famous. The curved toe, a characteristic that definitively identifies authentic juttis, needs specific expertise to curve properly. If it is made too curved and the shoe becomes inelegant, too straight and lacking that special aura. It is such craftsmanship that makes traditional juttis immediately recognizable.
Embellishment and Artistry
The one aspect that sets Gulbhahar’s traditional juttis apart is their attention to decoration. Skilled craftsmen take a long time to create fine embroidery designs, putting each ornament in just the right place. Each sequin, bead, and thread is carefully placed to create designs that are true to traditional shapes. They also resonate with contemporary tastes. Delicate floral patterns evoking the gardens of Mughal India. While geometric patterns drawing from Indian folk art, every pair is a distinct narrative.
The dyeing process is as precise. Natural dyes and premium synthetic colours are applied in thin, uniform coats. Each coat drying thoroughly before the next coat is applied. By taking such care, the team guarantees that the rich colours of Punjabi juttis at Gulbhahar keep looking their best. Even after wearing them and cleaning the multiple times.
Final Touches and Quality Assurance
Punjabi juttis at Gulbhahar undergo rigorous quality testing before they are allowed to leave the workshop. Craftspeople check every stitch, evaluate the comfort of the sole, and inspect that all details are well attached. Because of consistently assuring one hundred percent quality, Gulbhahar has become a go-to brand for replacing customers’ most valued juttis, and from both formal and informal occasions, the significance of their juttis is relied upon more than just a beautiful traditional item in our customers’ eyes, as preserving the handcraft means preserving something timeless from India.
At Gulbhahar, handcrafting is more than just making. It preserves the timelessness of traditional juttis and acknowledges the cultural heritage of India. We do this to keep them captivating to the next generation, while also acknowledging the artists who contribute to make these pieces.
