Original Indian art — curated, certified, and made accessible for every home, office, and occasion.
Art for every home.
Every occasion.
Founded in 2011 by Prshant Lahoti, ArtCafe was born from a simple conviction: that original art should not be the preserve of galleries and collectors alone. It should be part of everyday life — in the homes, offices, and gifting rituals of anyone who appreciates beauty.
A sister concern of Kalakriti Art Gallery and part of the Kalakriti India family, ArtCafe brings over two decades of expertise in Indian art to a platform designed for accessibility. Every piece comes with a certificate from the artist or archive. A crew of talented graphic designers, product designers, and technical operators work to create and manufacture each item to the highest standard.
ArtCafe serves individual collectors, interior designers, corporate clients, and gift buyers — with a curated selection spanning original paintings, vintage collectibles, limited edition prints, home décor, and bespoke institutional mementos.
A graduate of St. Stephen’s College, Delhi, and a former national Table Tennis player, Harshvardhan Lahoti leads ArtCafe and Kalakriti India’s affordable art and retail division — bringing original Indian art to a broader audience without compromising on quality or authenticity. He represents the next generation of a family devoted to India’s art and cultural heritage.
Beyond the product —
a complete art service
Curated for
every sensibility
Everything we offer —
in one place
Nostalgia —
India remembered
The Nostalgia collection is ArtCafe’s most distinctive offering — a curated series of archival prints drawn from the Kalakriti Archives’ collection of nine thousand vintage photographs.
These are the images that documented India before the age of mass photography: rare cityscapes of Hyderabad, Bombay, and Calcutta; portraits of royalty; architectural studies of monuments that have since transformed beyond recognition. Each print is produced to archival standards and certified by the Kalakriti Archives.
For the first time, photographic heritage preserved in one of India’s most significant private archives can be owned and lived with — not locked away, but on the walls of homes that appreciate history.
Gifts that carry
meaning & memory
ArtCafe has built a strong reputation for bespoke corporate gifting and institutional commissions — producing art-inspired mementos that go far beyond the generic. Every commission is a design project: your organisation’s story, history, and values translated into an object of lasting beauty.
Whether you are marking an anniversary, rewarding a team, welcoming a delegation, or celebrating a milestone, ArtCafe can design and manufacture a gift that reflects the occasion with quality and care.
Past projects include the centenary celebrations of Hyderabad Public School, for which ArtCafe designed several commemorative mementos. To discuss a commission, write to hello@artcafe.in or call +91 99481 50000.
Custom mementos for centenary celebrations, founding anniversaries, and institutional milestones — designed and manufactured by ArtCafe’s in-house team.
Art-inspired gifts for clients, partners, and employees — original prints, framed vintage photographs, curated art objects, and bespoke products at every price point.
Weddings, housewarmings, birthdays, and festivals — ArtCafe’s collection offers gifts that carry meaning and beauty, far removed from the ordinary.
“The idea is to take art that’s both beautiful and affordable to every household and workplace, so that you can appreciate it every day.”
