Our Story
Nikhat's founder and creative director Nikhat Jahan hails from an industrial design background. In 2015, Nikhat decided to change gears and turn her energy towards Nikhat, a collection of exceptional handbags. Focusing on quality material, good design, craftsmanship and sustainability, Nikhat reflects the epitome of quality over quantity.
Nikhat was highly inspired by the Bauhaus Movement's artists and architects. From Mies van der Rohe's works to Kandinsky's paintings, to Aalto's furniture, she acquired a rationalist vision of design by gleaning how they served a utilitarian purpose in a cleverly simple way. Nikhat merges industrial design and fashion, creating functional handbags made of luxurious and honest materials to improve people's lives in small but important ways.
Innovation being the key factor alongside aesthetic, Nikhat has brought unexpected shapes with smart details, functionality and a new luxury feel with a contemporary price point.
India is where Nikhat was born, the company's headquarters lies in Lucknow, India.
