Where craft meets culture
Welcome to SAINT RIDGE, where each rug is more than decor—it's a tapestry of tradition, culture, and artistry. Driven by a passion for preserving the beauty of handmade crafts and a dedication to empowering women artisans, we bring authentic, ethically crafted pieces from around the world into your home.
A note from our founder
My journey to creating SAINT RIDGE began with a love for exploring diverse cultures and discovering the the vibrant textiles and crafts unique to each region. I started collecting pieces from my travels, each reflecting the rich heritage of the places I visited. They were more than just souvenirs; they were tangible memories of the people I met and the experiences I cherished. From hand-knotted rugs from Morocco, to intricate ikat tapestries from Bali, to woven blankets from Oaxaca, each piece I brought home allowed me to weave a visual narrative of my journeys, and sharing them with friends and family became a way to connect them to the beauty of the places I'd been.
Today, our mission is simple: to bridge cultures through craft. Our ethically made, handcrafted textiles tell the story of the people and places from which they came, fostering a more beautiful and connected world.
