At Trove we believe it is imperative that all businesses both large and small prioritize eco-friendly practices in every aspect of their products. Whilst changing lifestyle choices is never easy and takes time and effort we must remember that every little step we take in the right direction will have a greater impact over time. Recycle, Reuse & Repurpose is the Trove pledge of ethical conduct.

The Kantha textiles we source began their existence as exquisite saris worn by the women of India and Bangladesh. Once their use as a garment expires the saris are then reused by laying them one on top of the other, sometimes up to 5 layers thick. They are then hand sewn together using decorative patterns with colourful thread to become repurposed as a beautifully textured household item to be used as wall hangings or furniture covers/blankets.
The magnificent designs and motifs of Indian Chintz fabrics have been sought after from every corner of the world since the 1600s.

For centuries from Europe and throughout Asia, these wonderful textiles have been highly sort after and traded.

Once the textiles arrive at the Trove workroom they are sterilized and then assessed as to what they might be best suited to for yet another chapter of their lives. We then recycle them into unique one-of-a-kind decorative pillows and throws, each with it’s own individual history which radiates from the richness of their layered texture.
