100% ETHICALLY HANDCRAFTED
Each Scar & Ko piece is ethically sourced and meticulously hand-stitched by the artisans of Jaipur, India. The special technique used comes with rich tradition which can be traced back to the Fifth Century B.C.
ECO-FRIENDLY ART FORM
The designs that you see on Scar & Ko pieces are created with individual, hand-carved wooden blocks. The artisans carve each design into the blocks. This process can take several hours, or even days depending on the detail in the design.
NON-TOXIC PRINT DYE
Every print is hand blocked using an eco-friendly, non-toxic vegetable dye. This means no synthetics are used which can cause skin irritation. This process requires precison, skill and patience, giving Scar & Ko pieces thier individaulistic charm.
