Our Story
"Growing up in Pen meant growing up surrounded by devotion."
Urban Mushak was founded by a corporate couple born and brought up in Pen. As children, they walked past workshops watching artisans shape clay late into the night. The fragrance of wet clay and the sound of aarti are unforgettable parts of their childhood.
After moving to big cities, they realized families struggled to find authentic idols from real Pen artisans. Inspired by their hometown, they created this platform to deliver handcrafted tradition directly to urban homes.
