About Muskhane

"Muskhane means smile in Nepalese, and it is the warmth of the Himalayan people and the beauty of their work that have inspired Thierry and Valerie Billot to share their discoveries with the world." Quoted from Muskhane.
Juniper has carried Muskhane for a few years and it quickly became a favorite. The stylish but simple silhouettes in basic and bold colors are what drew us to the line as did their whimsical home items. The cashmere is so soft and the felt items so fun we can't help but smile! Their shop in Paris, very near the Dominique Picquier shop, has colorful and festive window displays which caught our eye. Working with designers who pay fairly and create responsibly is important to Juniper. We were thrilled to learn that Muskhane is a socially responsible company. They invest in the artisans they work with and the community they share as well as the wider world around them. Pieces from their S/S '13 home and fashion collections are below!
