    Story Behind the Art:

    The series is made by an all-female cooperative in the draught-affected Marwari region of West Rajasthan, India. This cooperative is made of 272 women actively practicing this art. The artisans are distributed over the region in various villages. Profits from this art help in the overall development of these artisan communities. This region now has medical centers providing basic health services, electricity produced from solar energy, evening schools for kids and vocational colleges for women. Fair Trade practices ensure fair wages, no child labor, equal rights for women, preservation of traditional arts and development opportunities for these underprivileged artisans.

great fabric

This bag is very well made. The material feels wonderful, and it is comfortable to wear. I like a little organization, and this fits the bill. I needed a bag that fit my style that I could take on a trip overseas and this holds everything that I am taking with me!
