About UsOver the years, what has sparked new life into the concept of hand-made paper is the fast-growing personal stationery market. The colorful spectrum here includes writing paper, envelopes, blanks for personal invitations, desktop and home decor accessories. Indian handmade paper is eco-friendly and is made from cotton waste dumps from garment industries. The process does not use toxic chemicals or preservatives. What however adds the ethnic touch to the paper is the embellishment with natural materials such as straw, grass, hemp, petals and silk waste.
