Fashion Bags Hand-knotted by Blind Artisans

Every Cara Brent bag is delicately hand-knotted by a visually impaired weaver from Kolkata, India.  
Knot by knot, they carry the hope of something bigger: a  future of dignified employment.  A  chance to have a normal life.

Every day, they weave towards that future of light. The blind artisans weave Malai cords to form small knots, also called ‘flowers’.  Each bag takes at least one thousand ‘flowers’ and twelve to fourteen hours.  The result is a product of guidance, patience and hands of hope.  You see, when they’re given an opportunity and a supportive community, they can accomplish what you and I can.

Guide them towards a future of light.  So the path they walk will be bright.

All it takes is a simple act of kindness – shop.
