Short description

PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING: This listing is for *ONErandomly chosen upcycled sari drawstring pouch from the stock shown (see example photos).You will receive a pouch like the ones shown in the photos which will be CHOSEN AT RANDOM, but colours and patterns of the sari used to make and line your pouch may vary. All pouches included in this listing are heavily discounted by 30-50%, and your purchase will continue to support our mission to empower the women we employ.

Perfect for carrying your cards, keys, face mask, earphones and any other little bits you don't want to keep in your pocket. These lovely little pouches are made using reclaimed sari fabric (mixed fibres). The inner lining is also made from an offcut piece of fabric from a complimentary upcycled sari, and is divided into two handy compartments.

Each pouch was lovingly handmade by empowered artisan makers in India. By purchasing this item, you are helping to empower and provide ongoing employment income for the women who make these handmade products.

Our saris are from all over India and beyond, which means we have a wide variety of patterns and traditions represented. Many were generously donated especially for this social initiative. Because every sari is unique, each zip pouch has its own story and is truly one-of-a-kind. Most saris are comprised of multiple colours and patterns intended to compliment each other when draped, which is why no two items made from the same sari are the same. Colours and patterns may vary from the photographs, depending on which part of the sari was used. Some finished items have minor imperfections, which makes them even more charming and distinctive.

Shakti.ism is a British brand that gives Indian Sarees a second life by reusing them into beautiful new items in social workshops in India and Bangladesh.

Fair trade: Shakti.ism is a social enterprise operating in India and Bangladesh. Employees are paid a fair wage as well as additional health and wellness benefits. Shakti.ism regularly visits the locations and consults with their employees.

Environmentally friendly: The items are made from old Indian Sarees that are given a second life by Shakti.ism. For example, many sarees are donated. Local donations are generally from poorer people who donate sarees in exchange for other necessities of life. Or they sell it to Shakti.ism at a low price so that they can use this money to buy basic necessities. Shakti.ism can then save the second-hand fabric from being thrown away and reuse it. Saris can also be donated in Europe so that they can be reused.

Good cause: Shakti.ism works with women who are at risk of being affected by gender-based violence. At Shaktiism these women are given the opportunity to earn their own money fairly in a pleasant environment.
