The Studio
Every piece should carry a motive, not just a design.
— Mato Crafts Studio, Patan Dhoka
Brand Story
From a Patan Studio to a New Nepali Jewelry Voice
Mato Crafts began as a tiny bench-side experiment: shaping polymer clay by hand and testing forms inspired by old Nepali motifs.
What started as a few custom gifts quickly became a serious craft practice rooted in patience, detail, and cultural memory.
Each collection carries references from temple lines, festive color palettes, and the quiet texture of Patan lanes.
The goal is simple: create pieces that feel modern to wear, but unmistakably connected to where they come from.

The Hands Behind the Clay
Founder
Subhechha Singh
“Subhechha Singh, the 21 year old founder of @mato_crafts a soulful brand born from clay, culture, and courage.”
💫 What started as a lockdown hobby turned into a heartfelt venture fueled by @subh_echha ‘s desire for independence and creativity. From crafting with air-dry clay to investing in polymer clay ovens through student venture funding, Subhechha’s journey is one of learning, leaping, and leaning into her roots. Her handcrafted jewelry doesn’t just accessorize. It tells stories, celebrates Nepali tradition, and reminds us that dreams molded with love and persistence can shine beautifully. 🌿 We visited her cozy, aesthetic store and dived into her world through fun Q&As, a little this-or-that, and honest conversations about growth, grit, and grace. If you’re inspired, support her journey- shop from her store, explore her designs, or place a thoughtful order. Every piece carries a story worth wearing.
