A Legacy Forged in Leather
Our name, Jeen-Gar, is our promise. It means "the saddle-maker," a title our ancestors held with honor for over 500 years. This is not just our brand; it is our identity, a story of heritage, and a commitment to a timeless craft.
From Age of Kings...
For five centuries, the Jeengar community were the master artisans for the royal families of Rajasthan. Our legacy was built on the most demanding of tasks: crafting the legendary Marwari horse saddles ('Jeen') and resilient leather armor. This was the pinnacle of Rajasthani leather craftโa discipline where quality was a matter of life and honor, and every stitch was a testament to strength and skill.
...To A Timeless Skill in a Changing World
As the age of kingdoms gave way to the era of industry, the demand for saddles and armor waned, but the skill did not vanish. It was passed down through generations, a sacred knowledge preserved in the hands of our artisans. We saw a world filling with mass-produced, disposable goods and knew that the enduring quality of our heritage was more valuable than ever.
