practises associated with it. We want to be the representatives of the rich history that India stands
for. Who better than the actual artisans to help us do that?
At ATS, we combine traditional artisanal practices with modern sustainable design and curate
handicrafts that are contemporary and make a statement. It is the fruits of labour of our artisans
that are passed on FROM THEM TO YOU.
About The Founder
Our Founder
The brand was born out of an epiphany had by our founder - Ms. Aastha Mangal
Born in Jaipur, graduated from University of Arts, London after completing schooling from India.
Growing up in a multilingual environment filled with different cultures, I knew very early that I
wanted to bring new age contemporary with amalgamation of traditions to India. wanted to provide a platform for skilled rural artisans, encourage quality craftsmanship and revive lost indian traditions that are also beneficial to the environment with each present curated from them to you. I feel immense pride for the impact we’ve created in peoples’ lives which gives us hopes for what lies ahead
She realised the void of opportunities in rural and marginalised communities - where age-old
traditions and the crafts were losing their essence and artisans.
This led to the birth of Ace The Space. With a clear objective of leveraging the craftsmanship of these artisans and curating an exclusive range of gifting products for the global urban consumer, Ace The Space set out on a journey in 2021.
These products developed by these artisans are not just functional - but they are a perfect
amalgamation of our historic art and our outlook of a modern India. Highly functional in their true form, these products are not only chic yet edgy , but also serve a purpose that makes a difference to the society and environment.
