Sustainable
The fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world, and it’s time we rethink the materials, processes, and packaging used to create our beloved purchases. This is why we’ve done the upfront legwork and vetted our brands to ensure that our planet’s health is top of mind for them as well.
Woman-Owned
Women lift up half of the sky - by investing in women, you’re assisting in the process of creating more wealth for families and communities. The successes of women shape the way young girls see themselves as they develop into leaders, and it's essential for the world to provide leaders that mirror half of the population.
Toxic Free
The secret behind the beauty, personal-care, and fashion industry is that they’re virtually unregulated, and therefore, allowed to use untested chemicals in their products. Exposure to these ingredients can be harmful overtime, and that’s why we’ve vetted each and every single one of these brands to ensure that they’re up to standards for those looking for a cleaner beauty routine or may be more sensitive to harsh ingredients.
Ethical
Here at ourCommonplace, all brands have our ethical stamp of approval, which encompasses decent working conditions, treatment of workers, and fair-wages. Through providing a platform for purchasing ethical goods and ensuring all brands uphold ethical standards, we hope to take us towards a more equitable and just world.
BIPOC-Owned
We believe in uplifting BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities by empowering their businesses. By choosing to allocate your purchasing power to BIPOC-owned businesses, you're not only strengthening local BIPOC communities — you're also contributing to shrinking the racial wealth gap, fostering job creation, and propelling diverse representation across consumer industries.

Look no further for an oversized hand towel that will complement any kitchen or bathroom. Each towel is handwoven in India using time-honored weaving techniques and edged with a hand twisted tassels.
100% organic cotton adds a distinctively rich texture that softens and absorbs more with each wash/dry. Despite its large size, the cotton folds up neatly in a kitchen or linen closet. To complete the look in the bathroom, pair it with the bath towels.
Material - 100% Organic Cotton
Size - 24” x 34”

Machine wash on cold or warm. Do not use bleach. Tumble dry on low to medium heat. Use mild detergents and fabric softeners as needed.

Over the course of two decades, 100 small farmer cooperatives in South India have benefited from successful social and economic interventions, which have evolved into a rural farming model based on local resources and traditional skills to improve livelihood. Small and marginal rain-fed farmers' efforts to engage in default organic agriculture have resulted in increased organic farming and the linking of their cotton to mainstream markets.
