Harshita Banvir (Sanwini)
A Legacy of Love and Honor: Fulfilling My Father's and Grandfather's Dream
I am proud to carry forward the dream of two remarkable men—my father, Mr. Sanjay Banvir, and my grandfather, Mr. Ashwini Banvir. Together, their names form Sanwini, a legacy built on passion, integrity, and the courage to create something meaningful.
Though my father passed away at the young age of 38, when I was just 10 years old, his spirit lives on in me. His dreams, values, and unwavering honesty guide every step of my journey. He, along with my grandfather, dared to leave a mark, and I am here to make sure their vision thrives.
I am truly Sanwini — Harshita Sanwini — carrying forward their legacy with love and dedication.

Why Should anybody Buy Hand Crafted Products from "Moh-Sattva" ?
You should definitely buy Handmade from "Moh - Sattva" if you do not wanna get scammed. 90 % of Hand crafted or Hand made Products available out there in the market are not handmade at all. The Brands are bluffing with you.
As a Buyer if you think you are getting a Handmade Mug in just 400 Rupees. You are not aware at all. Brands sell there defected pieces saying it is Handmade so can not be perfect. They buy it in Bulk and sell it little cheaper than the the true handmade products to attract sales, Good Money but not authentic. Plus you get a common design available in every second house. They are "Hand Touched" Products at max but not "Handmade'.
Here at "Moh Sattva" or any other studio Pottery, The Pottery artist design the Product, They make it only few pieces of that design so that you can possess something unique in your home. The Artist put their Heart and Soul into it that is why not all the Products have their own story, perfection, beauty and unique flaws. It feels different when they are truly Handmade.
If you know, you know.
What is missing in the Gifting Experience of India ?
Many people struggle to find gifts that truly represent their emotions. Often, they feel unsure about what to choose, not knowing how to convey their feelings through a meaningful present. As an empath, I deeply understand the unspoken emotions behind every gesture, and that’s where my passion for creating a gifting brand began.
Each product I design is made to help the receiver pause, appreciate life, and cherish the beauty of small, special moments. Every item is handcrafted, handmade, or hand-poured with love and care. This personal touch ensures that the gifts aren’t just objects—they become experiences, making the recipient feel special with every use.
The 4-leaf clover became my logo and the theme for my first product line because it symbolizes good fortune, heartfelt wishes, and the beauty of thoughtful gestures. This is only the beginning—many more themes and ideas will follow as I aim to elevate India’s gifting experience, making it both special and simple.
What’s the Meaning Behind 8HS8 on Your Products?
Harshita: As an artist, creator, and designer, I’m naturally drawn to details that others might overlook. One day, while reflecting on my name, I realized something special. My name, Harshita, has 8 letters. Interestingly, the letter ‘H’ is the 8th letter in the alphabet, and ‘S’ is the 8th letter if you count backward.
That’s when I decided to place 8 at the beginning and end of my brand's initials, HS, creating 8HS8—a unique code that represents Harshita Sanwini Design Studio. You’ll find this code at the bottom of every product we design, as a mark of authenticity.
But there’s more! Both 'H' and 'S' can be transformed into the number 8 with just two strokes of a pen—go ahead, try it! And, 8 is also the symbol of infinity, representing endless creativity. Plus, 2024 adds up to 8, and I was born under the 8th Nakshatra (constellation). Everything seems to align perfectly, doesn’t it?
Why Is the 4-Leaf Clover Your Logo and First Product Theme?
Harshita: (Smiling) Do you still need to ask? As I mentioned earlier, it's all about the number 8.
Each leaf of the clover has 2 parts, so a 4-leaf clover has 8 parts in total. The significance of 8 continues to inspire me. But there’s more to it—anyone close to me knows how obsessed I am with the clover emoji! I use it constantly, whether I’m texting, writing captions, or commenting on Instagram. One day, out of curiosity, I looked up its deeper meaning and came across the animated movie Luck. Naturally, I watched it, and the 4-leaf clover’s theme truly resonated with me.
When I thought about starting my gifting brand, the clover was all I could think of—it symbolizes good fortune, heartfelt intentions, and the desire to give something truly special.
