Hand block printing is one of the oldest and most celebrated textile crafts in India. Each block is hand carved from wood and then dipped in natural dye and pressed onto the fabric by hand. This is a very skilled craft that has been passed down through generations of families in Rajasthan. Pearl and Bertie works directly with these artisan families to create our unique hand block print collections.

Our vintage sari collection is made from reclaimed and upcycled vintage saris sourced from India. Each piece is unique and one of a kind. By using vintage saris we are giving a new life to these beautiful fabrics and reducing waste.

Hand screen printing is another traditional craft that we work with. Each design is hand printed onto the fabric using natural dyes. This process is done entirely by hand by skilled artisans.

Our Deadstock Collection represents our enduring roots within the world of sustainability. Every piece gathered here is made from rescued and revitalised fabric that would otherwise be cast aside and eventually end up in landfill. In giving these unique fabrics another life cycle, we in turn are helping the environment and Mother Nature and also creating something unique.

We believe in working with organic cotton fabrics as it's better for water than conventionally produced cotton, better for the environment and for the people who harvest this crop. Organic is the only system which eliminates highly toxic substances from the environment and instead works holistically for the long term health of people and planet.

Where possible we create woollen clothing using Fair Trade hand knitted wool/mohair or wool/organic cotton which is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment and the people who work with it.

All ethical standard practices are adhered to for all employees working on the production of our sustainable jewellery collection.
