Hand-Embroidered Octopus Linen Travel Pouch

Hand-Embroidered Octopus Linen Travel Pouch

A natural linen travel and toiletry pouch, hand-embroidered with an octopus, with a top zipper and a full lining. It's a good size for toiletries, makeup, chargers, or small travel essentials.

Each pouch is made by the women of EkTara Creates in Kolkata, India. Many of them are mothers of girls at the EkTara school, which Her Future Coalition is proud to partner with and support. The women come from the Topsia community, where many families lost their daily-wage income during the COVID lockdowns and the 2020 cyclone. This work gives them a steady income and a way to invest in their daughters' futures. For more ocean-inspired pieces, see the Wave Necklace and Invisible World Ring.
