Sari-Silk Wrapped Journals with Handmade Paper

Beautifully crafted Fair Trade notebooks bound in a vibrant sari material (saris are from Varansi). Each 6.5” x 4.5” journal contains 30 pages of blank handmade recycled cotton paper (khadda) and is fastened with a traditional wrap around string.

Khadda is recycled cotton that has been left over from the massive garment industry in India. It is stunning and very easy to write on, however, we don't recommend using fountain pen with this type of handmade paper. The paper is made by a charity in rural Rajasthan that promotes women’s education and their social standing in the rural villages.

The notebooks are made in a small workshop in Rajasthan, India by skilled crafts people using a mixture of traditional and contemporary methods. Done “in-house” at Pranakriya, each notebook is embellished by unique block stamping in the back, and a sparkly PK yogi graces the inside front cover. The uniqueness of each book is rounded out with a large tassel in varying colors.

Each piece is one-of-a-kind, and variation in stamping, binding, paper, and color should be expected, as with all handmade products. Limited availability.
