Fair Trade Handmade Leather World Travel Journal
JEB 514

Description

DIMENSIONS: 5" x 7"

This refillable journal has a world map embossed on the cover. The leather used to create the cover is also “cruelty-free”, which means that it came from animals that died naturally.

This is a fair trade item handcrafted by artisans in India. The artisans make the paper by hand by collecting scraps of cotton from the textile industry. They turn this waste into a pulp and in turn create the rich-texture paper. This means that the paper is 100% tree-free and environmentally friendly.


Additional Info

Leather Craft

In a vegetarian region of Rajasthan, India, the cultural art of leather craft and tooling is inherited through the generations. Cows are revered here, and hides are obtained only after an animal dies of old age or natural causes. Our leather is tanned using a vegetable tanning method, which protects the environment and tannery workers from toxic chemicals. Artisans then use water-based dyes or oils to color the leather. With a set of hand tools, each artisan applies love and skill to cutting, stitching, embossing and embroidering our leather journals, bags, and accessories.
