Rubyzaar is a women-owned & operated brand founded by sisters, Sarah & Molly Rubin. Fairtrade and sustainable practices start from the bottom up. That is why Rubyzaar pays a livable wage to all people who contribute to the creation of our goods. To help sustain traditional craftsmanship and farming techniques, Rubyzaar collaborates directly with the weavers, tailors, tanners, and artisans. We are based in Brooklyn & Bangkok, and have been working with the same family-owned artisan collectives for over 20 years. We are delighted to share their culture and talents with you. With every Rubyzaar purchase, you are helping to preserve traditional craftsmanship and sustainable manufacturing. Rubyzaar is sweatshop-free and fabulous. Wear it with pride. Thank you! Molly & Sarah
