    शान्ति Śānti, Peace tee
    Word in focus

    शान्ति

    Śānti, peace

    In India, many prayers end by repeating this word three times: śānti, śānti, śānti. We embroider it in indigo on white, for quiet mornings and children falling asleep.

    Our story

    Kilkari is a Franco-Indian lifestyle brand. We take words from Sanskrit, the language of the oldest Indian texts, and embroider them on premium tees made in France.

    Each word carries a meaning worth wearing: vision, knowledge, the strength of women. For children growing up between two cultures, and for the adults around them.
