Renewing Materials, New Lives
MarketPlace's Chindi collection makes scraps stylish while training new artisans. The chindi, small fabric pieces left over from cutting garments, are recycled into new clothing, accessories and embellishments in a variety of ways. After being cut into uniform pieces, the chindi are sewn together by trainees learning to sew straight and accurate seams on the sewing machines. Look for the C sign next to products in the catalog to see the creative ways the artisans have incorporated chindis.

Great jacket!
Jun 22, 2022 | By Therry Neilsen-Steinhardt
happily bought this jacket on sale and took it with us on a trip to Boston for a week. I must have worn it every day! It goes well with so many colors, and the length is exactly right to cover my waist and provide a little warmth with a sleeveless dress or t-shirt. I could even wear it as a top! I still have the first item I bought from Marketplace India in 1990, and I expect this little jacket to last the rest of my life.
