KORISSA
KORISSA is a socially and environmentally conscious brand featuring a unique and purposeful line of home decor and accessories, responsibly handmade by Fair Trade artisans in Bangladesh. They offer a versatile range of products including storage baskets, bread warmers, home textiles, fashion totes and clutches—all made using sustainable jute, seagrass, and other locally-sourced natural fibers.
Working in partnership with four artisan organizations in Bangladesh, KORISSA helps provide educational and job opportunities to this disadvantaged community. Artisans have access to broader markets and new opportunities, preserving their culture and traditional crafting skills that have been passed down through generations. They are paid fair wages, provided with access to healthcare, and are able to live dignified, sustainable livelihoods and become empowered within their communities.
