Russet Floral Blockprint Napkins, set of 4

The Prerna Cooperative is named for Prerna, or “inspiration and encouragement”. The group was established in 2023, branching off from a collective that had become too large to manage effectively. Prerna's 13 members are experienced tailors and embroiderers who welcomed the challenge of starting their own group despite many obstacles. This shared responsibility and leadership have proven transformative, empowering each woman to grow personally and professionally. Equal Exchange is proud to partner with MarketPlace India, an organization that has empowered co-ops of women artisans for more than 40 years. Through this collaboration we're excited to offer a limited collection of artisan-made textiles that each contribute to the hope and independence of these inspiring women.
