Ethically sourced leather cover features an intricately embossed tree of life design. The fold-over flaps with snap closures open to reveal 144 pages of 100% tree-free, cotton paper. Artisans collect cotton waste and turn it into a pulp to create a rich textured paper with a uniquely soft feel.
Who Made It: Matr Boomie works with artisans to increase accessibility and sustainable employment in India. They partner with over 1,500 artisans in marginalized communities. Cotton scraps are collected from the textile industry and broken down into fibers using a traditional wheel press and soaked overnight. The pulp is strained, pressed into pages and hung to dry. The entire process is tree-free, non-toxic, and conserves and filters water for reuse in irrigation.
Materials: Tree-free recycled cotton paper and ethically sourced vegetable-tanned leather
