Consumer Protection • Provenance Intelligence • Anti-Counterfeit Investigation
CKHG is Craftlore’s investigative intelligence engine designed to protect genuine handmade craft ecosystems. It powers real-time evaluation of GI authenticity evidence, seller integrity, artisan attribution, price anomaly detection, and material composition.
When examining handmade craft listings online or in retail, CKHG evaluates 8 critical dimensions of authenticity and transparency:
Validates official Geographical Indication certification, testing lab batch IDs, and registered secure QR codes.
Verifies authentic geographical lineage and district-level origin against official Kashmir craft registries.
Cross-references merchant records against the Kashmir Trade Registry (CKTRE) to establish compliance history.
Confirms direct weaver, embroiderer, or carver association to ensure genuine human artisanal craftmanship.
Flags machine-made fakes sold at impossible discounts (e.g. ₹3,000 $40 "100% Pashmina" shawls).
Identifies synthetic modal, viscose, jacquard machine weaves, and screen-printed imitations masquerading as handmade.
Provides fiber micron count standards (<16 microns for Pashmina) and sustainable lifecycle analysis (CLEE).
Tracks socio-economic wage benchmarks (CSEME) to advocate for ethical compensation for master artisans.
