In the villages and district around Jaipur in India, the traditional fabric industry is a major employer. People work in indigo dying, block printing, block-print carving, fabric weaving and more. And, interestingly, they're also employed in the handmade paper industry because the paper that's made around Jaipur is cotton paper, which uses cotton waste from the cotton fabric industry.
Merchant Campbell sources our paper products from a small family-owned business in the heart of the fabric making area of Jaipur. This family is well-known and awarded for its beautiful products and has an emphasis on recycling – this gets a big tick from us.
Any irregularities are characteristics of handcrafted and recycled origins.
