Vintage Kantha Tote Bag
Kantha dates back to the late 16th century, yet the traditional technique ticks all our favorite boxes today: handmade, sustainable, beautiful, sturdy, and unique. Artisans in India make these no-two-are-alike accessories by quilting upcycled saris together in unique patchwork patterns with distinctive, wavy kantha embroidery. This stylish, lightweight bag handles any toting task and makes trips to the farmers market, the library, or the park even more of a pleasure than they already are (unless those books are overdue). Handmade in India.

Sari Scarf
Upcycled from vintage saris in India, this gorgeous scarf is a patchwork of richly colored pieces of luxurious silk. To make the scarves, individual saris are cut into strips and hand stitched together with others to create a vibrant blend of color. The scarf is then moistened, tightly twisted, and wound around a bamboo pole, creating a beautiful, rippling texture as it dries. Each scarf has unique variations in its pattern and colors, and can be worn wrapped around the shoulders or head. Handmade in India from 100% recycled materials.
Due to the recycled and handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.

Zodiac Profile Coasters
The Taurus had a stiff whiskey. A craft cocktail quenched the Aquarius. The Libra couldn’t decide on one drink. They each had clever coasters to celebrate their sign as they sipped. (So did the nine other astrological signs.) Designed by Megan Steffen, each set of four features starry illustrations, including the zodiac wheel, your corresponding constellation, and related symbols–color-coded to match the sign’s ruling element. Made of sandstone and backed with cork, they’re a fun gift for occasional chart-checkers and horoscope devotees alike. Made in Chicago.
