Buy Unique Women’s Day Gifts from India

International Women’s Day (March 8th) is more than just a date on the calendar. It’s a moment to pause and say “Thank you” to the women who make our world a better place. Whether it’s the mother who still sends you recipes from 5,000 miles away, the sister who is your lifelong secret-keeper, or the wife who builds a life with you every day they deserve a gift as unique as they are.

If you are living abroad, finding that “perfect” gift often means looking back home to India. From handcrafted jewelry to artisanal sarees, India offers treasures you simply cannot find anywhere else in the world.

This guide brings you the best Women’s Day gifts from India curated by relationship, style, and story—along with a simple way to import them to your doorstep in just 3–6 days, no matter where you live.

Why Buy Women’s Day Gifts from India When You Live Abroad?

If you’ve spent any time living outside India, you already know the answer. There is something irreplaceable about a gift that carries the scent, texture, and soul of home. But beyond the nostalgia, there are very practical reasons why buying from India is the smartest gifting decision you can make this Women’s Day.

The Gifts Are Genuinely Unique

Walk into any store in New York, London, Dubai, or Sydney and you will find mass-produced candles, generic spa kits, and the same ten handbag brands. What you will not find is a hand-woven Chanderi saree from Madhya Pradesh, a brass Masala Daan made by a family artisan in Rajasthan, or a soy candle hand-poured with the scent of Mysore sandalwood. India’s artisanal ecosystem is vast, diverse, and largely unavailable outside the country. When you gift something from India, you are gifting something she cannot find herself.

You Are Supporting Real Artisans and Women-Owned Businesses

Many of India’s most celebrated gifting brands are founded or led by women, and several work directly with local artisan communities. When you shop from India, your purchase travels down a meaningful supply chain—one that often supports weavers, potters, embroiderers, and small-batch makers who depend on this commerce. More on this in our dedicated Women Owned Brands section below.

This is where Shoppre changes the game entirely. You no longer need a friend or family member travelling from India to carry your gifts.

Best Indian Gifts to Import for Women’s Day — By Relationship

The most thoughtful gifts are the ones chosen with intention. Here is our curated guide, organized by the woman you are celebrating.

Gifts for Mom: The Timeless Indian Treasures She Deserves

For the Heart of the Home: Your mother deserves something that reflects her grace and the warmth she provides to everyone around her. Skip the generic and go for something timeless—something that will remind her of your love every single day.

• The “Six Yards of Grace” — Handloom Saree: A hand-woven Chanderi or a soft Mulmul saree from brands like FabIndia or Jaypore is more than just clothing; it is an heirloom. These luxury handloom sarees carry the legacy of centuries of Indian craftsmanship. Every time she drapes it, she will think of you.

• The Brass Ritual Set: If she loves her morning prayers or appreciates home aesthetics, a handcrafted brass Diya set or a vintage-style spice box (Masala Daan) from P-TAL adds a touch of heritage to her daily routine. These are pieces that connect her to tradition in the most beautiful way.

• Artisanal Tea Blends: Gift her a “moment of peace” with luxury tea hampers from Vahdam Teas or Tea Box, featuring flavors like Kashmiri Kahwa, Himalayan Green Tea, or First Flush Darjeeling. For a mother who deserves to slow down and savor, there is no better gift than the ritual of a perfect cup of tea.

Pro Tip: Pair a saree with a Vahdam tea hamper and a handwritten note in a consolidated Shoppre shipment. You save on shipping and she gets a beautifully curated gift box as if it came from a premium store.

Gifts for Your Sister: Where Modern Meets Traditional

For Your First Best Friend: For the sister who is always on the move, loves scrolling Instagram for indie brands, and has a style that mixes modern trends with traditional roots—these picks are made for her.

• Contemporary Vegan Leather Bags — Zouk: Brands like Zouk offer stunning office bags and slings that use traditional Ikat and Jute patterns in modern silhouettes. It is stylish, functional, cruelty-free, and very “her”. This is the kind of bag she will carry to work and to brunch equally.

• Indie Skincare Hampers: Indian “clean beauty” is having a global moment. A glow-enhancing kit from Forest Essentials or Kama Ayurveda is the ultimate pampering session she can enjoy at home. These Ayurvedic luxury skincare brands use traditional recipes with modern formulations her skin will thank you.

• Quirky Stationery & Journals: If she is a hustler and a creative soul, look for “Boss Lady” planners or hand-illustrated journals from The Souled Store or Alicia Souza. Alicia Souza, incidentally, is one of India’s most beloved women-owned illustration brands every purchase supports her and her small team directly.

• Indie Jewelry: Dainty gold-dipped earrings or resin jewelry from small Indian Etsy sellers and platforms like Jaypore are unique conversation starters. They’re the kind of pieces you simply cannot find in mainstream stores abroad.

Gifts for Your Wife: Luxury Indian Gifts She’ll Actually Use Every Day

For Your Partner in Everything: Celebrate her individuality with something personal, luxurious, and deeply thoughtful. She deserves a gift that tells her you know exactly who she is.

• Minimalist Fine Jewelry — Giva & Kymee: 18K gold vermeil necklaces or “Initial” pendants from brands like Kymee or Giva are perfect for daily wear. They are elegant, modern, and remind her of you every time she puts them on. These are among India’s most celebrated fine jewelry brands that are genuinely hard to find outside the country.

• Hand-Poured Soy Candles: Create a spa-like ambiance in her home with the scents of Mysore Sandalwood, Mogra, or Oudh. Look for artisanal brands on Etsy India or iTokri for unique, small-batch options. These are sensory experiences that transport her and your home to India with every flicker.

• Customized Tech Accessories: A personalized laptop sleeve or a hand-painted phone case that reflects her favorite Indian art form Madhubani, Warli, or Pichwai is a brilliant way to blend everyday practicality with cultural pride. She carries a piece of Indian heritage to every meeting and coffee shop.

• Luxury Saree or Silk Dupatta: If she is Indian at heart and loves dressing up, a lightweight Banarasi silk dupatta or a designer pre-stitched saree from Aza Fashions or Libas is a gift she will treasure and wear for years.

Support Women Owned Brands in India — Shop Gifts with a Purpose

This Women’s Day, your gift can do double duty: celebrate the woman in your life and empower the women behind the brands you shop from. India has a thriving ecosystem of women-founded and women-led businesses that create world-class products. Here are the standout names you should know about.

Alicia Souza — Illustrated Stationery & Gifts

Alicia Souza is one of India’s most beloved illustrators and the founder of her eponymous brand. Her hand-drawn illustrations adorn planners, notebooks, mugs, and gift cards that are bursting with personality. If the woman you’re gifting loves all things cute, expressive, and full of character—Alicia’s work was made for her. Every purchase directly supports Alicia’s small, women-led creative studio.

The Moms Co. — Safe & Natural Wellness

The Moms Co. was founded by Malika Sadani as a response to the lack of genuinely toxin-free personal care products in India. Today, it is one of India’s most trusted clean beauty and wellness brands. Their gift hampers—featuring natural body butters, hair oils, and serums—are perfect for any woman who values what she puts on her skin.

Kama Ayurveda — Ayurvedic Luxury Skincare

While Kama Ayurveda has multiple founders, its growth has been significantly led by women executives and it employs and empowers thousands of women across its supply chain, from herb farmers in Uttarakhand to artisanal soap makers in Kerala. Gifting Kama is gifting a centuries-old wellness tradition that sustains real livelihoods.

Zouk — Sustainable Fashion

Zouk was co-founded by Disha Singh, who built the brand from the ground up with a mission to create functional, cruelty-free bags rooted in Indian craft traditions. Their bags are not just beautiful—they are a statement. Gifting a Zouk bag this Women’s Day is gifting both style and a story of sustainable entrepreneurship.

Nua — Women’s Wellness

Nua is redefining women’s health in India. Founded with the mission to make menstrual wellness products that are better for the body and the planet, Nua offers customizable period care hampers that make incredibly thoughtful and practical gifts. It’s the kind of gift that says, “I see you and I care about your wellbeing.”

Pahadi Local — Himalayan Herb-Based Beauty

A women-led brand sourcing directly from Himalayan communities, Pahadi Local creates small-batch skincare using ingredients like Buransh (rhododendron), hemp, and Himalayan herbs. Their face oils and serums have a cult following and every purchase directly supports mountain farming communities—many of which are women-led households.
