Braided Leather Belt

100% leather, antique brass buckle, braided black leather, made in India by our partner workshop.

This belt was made in a family run - 3rd generation, open air workshop with on-site day care, garden, paying a living wage to the artisans who made the goods. The workshop is located in Madras, India, and melds the new (Japanese sewing machines) and the old (hand embroidery, hand loomed fabrics, natural dying) for a product that is authentic and contemporary. This is a mostly woman operated factory and is partnered with a rehabilitation center for women encountering domestic violence. We work out of the workshop for approximately two months of the year.
