Availability: | In stock (2) |
A one-of-a-kind, sustainable wedding or newborn gift, a treasured fireside blanket to curl up under, the this throw is handcrafted from recycled cotton saris by artisans of Sacred Mark, a workshop with Prokritee in rural Bangladesh.
Saris are collected and repurposed into six layers by women who have re-trained as artisans having left the red light district sex trade.
The name "Sacred Mark" was inspired by Nobel Prize-winning Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore, whose poetry speaks to lives transformed.
Colours and patterns vary. Measures 84x38 inches.
