A pencil is an important tool deserving of a magnificent case. The Rainbow Row Pencil Case is hand-embroidered by artisans working with our fair trade partner St. Mary's in India. Founded by the Dominican Sisters following the closure of textile mills in the area, St. Mary's has provided job opportunities for local women for over 40 years. The income women earn has helped to educate a generation of children, many of whom have become the first in their families to attend college.
