Let the Sloth Coin Purse serve as a reminder to spend your money slowly. The Sloth Coin Purse is a handcrafted from eco-leather by artisans working with our fair trade partner CRC in India. Eco-leather is crafted without using hazardous chemicals in the tanning process. Instead of azo dyes, formaldehyde and other substances, eco-leather is tanned using materials derived from sustainable tea bark extracts and waxes. This "vegetable tanning" was used in India in ancient times to tan leather. From our artisan partner group CRC Exports in India, which helps small, informally organized craft workshops develop into self-sustaining businesses.
