India Tote (by Priya and Kamalini Ghosh)Fabric from Kolkata, India brought to you by traveler Priya and Kamalini Ghosh. "This fabric was found at a local market called Dokinapan that is made up of these small shops that sell teas, fabrics, clothing, trinkets and much more! Local families in Kolkata own all these shops. The fabric was made on a handloom and was colored using natural dyed. We picked this fabric because it looked and reminded us of the Ganges River and we loved the brightness
