Vendor Spotlight: Bloom & Give

One of our bestsellers are our handwoven clutches from Bloom & Give. These clutches are truly works of art. The round Charlie clutch is made of a cotton canvas that was made by handloom weavers from the Malabar coast of India.The wooden looms that they use have been operating for 500 years, and have produced traditional wear for men and women for years. This method of production is also the lowest energy textile.  No electricity is used in the entire production. The yarn is handspun, hand dyed and then hung on a line to dry. Eventually they are hand woven and and become these incredible clutches. 


Bloom & Give is a great company that puts an emphasis on the artisans that they employ. “We are deeply invested in our artisan communities. The continued success of these small co-ops is critically important to the young employment seeking women in the community.”
