Saraswati Paper Journal - Peacock

Softbound 96-page journal featuring a blue peacock scene with hand painted details in 100% tree-free recycled cotton paper. Artisans collect cotton waste and turn it into a pulp to create a rich textured paper with a uniquely soft feel. Tie and tassel closure. 

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.
