Add a dash of color to your doorway with the Sari Rope Door Curtain from Bangladesh. Recycled cotton sari fabric and terra cotta beads combine in a design with a fun, boho flair. This eco-friendly home decor piece was handmade by artisans working with our fair trade partner Prokritee. The income women earn through employment with Prokritee helps them secure proper housing, adequate food and education for their children.
