An organized space is a happy space! Made from eco–leather — crafted without using hazardous chemicals in the tanning process. Instead of azo dyes, formaldehyde, and other substances, eco–leather is tanned using materials derived from sustainable tea bark extracts and waxes. This “vegetable tanning” was used in India in ancient times. From artisan partner group CRC Exports in India, which helps small, informally organized craft workshops develop into self–sustaining businesses.
