When thinking of footwear from India that blends tradition, artistry, and comfort, the first thought is often Punjabi juttis. These handcrafted juttis are more than footwear, they are a testament to the heritage, culture, and craftsmanship practised for generations. At Gulbhahar, founded by Monica Gulati, we bring this unique heritage back to everyday fashion in a modern approach.
Punjabi Juttis are ingrained in North Indian culture, from the royalty to the common village man. The Punjabi Jutti is a timeless charm that holds true even today. From the embroidery to the beadwork, every pair has the artistry of a skilled artisan behind it and showcases their talents as portable artwork.
At Gulbhahar our documented juttis hold this cultural significance in mind while becoming more adaptable to the present generations. When you're wearing a beautiful pair of juttis, your outfit can "go" in so many different directions!
Two of our most popular designs at Gulbhahar are Firoza and Anarkali.
Inspired by tones of turquoise and light floral embroidery, embodies sophistication with distinction. This design is compatible with those who enjoy understated glamour with bursts of colour.
A perennial classic and the pride of Gulbhahar's collection. This design pays tribute to Mughal magnificence, as demonstrated in the fine golden embroideries and auspicious patterns. The ultimate showstopper for weddings and festive events.
Both Firoza and Anarkali demonstrate the commitment to handcrafting details, comfort, and cultural aesthetics that embodies Gulbhahar.
To say there is a misperception that traditional juttis are reserved for specific occasions or that they may not be comfortable is an understatement. We have made every effort to reject this perception at Gulbhahar.
Monica Gulati and her team have curated beautiful, handmade pieces to provide comfort and style. Our juttis are made for people to wear, whether you are walking through wedding celebrations, or pairing your new juttis with some jeans for a relaxed coffee date.
Yes, many brands will sell juttis but Gulbhahar is primarily about artistry and authenticity rather than fashion. Each pair is made with heritage in mind, but also meeting the contemporary demands of the fashion landscape.
Handcrafted with artistic precision
True to heritage and tradition
Each pair carries history
Monica Gulati's Vision:
Purchasing a pair of Gulbhahar juttis is much like buying a piece of heritage. It marks a point of connection to the past while making you shine now.
Today, Punjabi Juttis virtually have a rightful place outside of the Indian subcontinent. From fashion influencers on Instagram to celebrities on red carpets, handcrafted juttis have become an internationally recognisable fashion statement.
Their versatility gives you added freedom to wear them with traditional Indian wear or even to emphasise western clothing, with dresses or denim.
At Gulbhahar, we believe that fashion should be expressive yet timeless. Our collections, like Firoza and Anarkali, stay true to that belief - and make sure you are stylish, yet comfortable, and mostly connected to an age-old tradition.
Experience the perfect blend of tradition and modernity with Gulbhahar's handcrafted Punjabi juttis. From Firoza's sophisticated elegance to Anarkali's regal magnificence, discover footwear that tells your story.
