Premium designer Rakhis are priced based on the craft, materials, and handwork involved. Simple handcrafted designs start at a few hundred rupees, while intricate Dokra, terracotta, Pattachitra, and copper enamel Rakhis cost more because of the skill and time required to create them. 

Buy Premium Rakhi Online For Raksha Bandhan 2026

Most Rakhis are forgotten after a few days. These are the ones your brother keeps. The iTokri best premium Rakhi collection brings together the more finely worked handmade Rakhis on the site, the ones with real craft behind them: brass cast by hand, terracotta painted with a fine brush, copper fired with enamel. 

What Goes Into These Premium Rakhis

None of these are stamped out by a machine or are mass produced. A Dokra Rakhi is cast in brass by hand, one mould at a time. A terracotta Rakhi is shaped from clay, fired, and painted. A copper enamel Rakhi is fired to set the colour. That is why each one sits a little differently in the hand, and why it lasts long after the thread is tied.

Every Rakhi here at iTokri is unique, made by artisans and maps some of India’s most intricate art forms into stunning wearable designs.
