Raksha Bella Organic’s Collection of eco-friendly pillowcases, quilts, shams, and duvet covers combine the graceful art of Indian color blocking with sustainable fabrics for one of a kind delicate patterns. Carrie Peter, an ex-interior decorator, founded Raksha Bella after her spiritual journey to India. During her visit, she was struck by the enormous poverty of the Indian cotton farmers, whose farms were destroyed by the use of the modified cotton crop. At the same time, she was entranced with the finely handcrafted textiles featuring age old color blocking techniques.

Her mission in creating Raksha Bella Organic was to restore dignity and wealth to the Indian farmer’s industry and to bring to highlight the beautiful color blocking techniques that she witnessed. The name Raska Bella means as follows: Raksha means protection in Sanskrit, and Bella means beautiful in Latin.

The Quality of the  Organic Fabrics

The organic bedding samples that I received were absolutely beautiful. The pictures on my site do not give the patterns justice.  They are delicate and intricate with a creamy off-white background. This 225 thread count line is SKAL and GOTS certified and uses AZO-free low impact dyes. In addition, the manufacturing process employs fair labor practices. In addition to the pattern pictured above, the Classic Collection features some of the following designs:

The manufacturing suggested retail cost for the Classic Collection is as follows: queen and king duvet covers start at $434, quilts at $455, pillowcases at $46.80 and shams at $22.40. Their expanded website is in its final preparations for launching, and at that time, online orders can be taken. In the meantime,

In addition, Raksha Bella has introduced a new organic bedding collection, the Kaleidoscope Bedding Collection, featuring king and queen fuchsia and violet prints quilts, shams, and duvet covers.  The Company’s organic bedding collection can be purchased at certain retail and online stores.

Retailers wanting to sell Raksha Bella in their own stores should contact the company for wholesale prices. Raksha Bella Organics’ dressed beds will not only be beautiful but healthy as well.

    Your main goal should be to make your room or home as comfortable and attractive to your taste as you can. The creation of theme groups of art images is a great way to decorate your walls and your home decorating. These theme groups can be done with any combination of sizes and subjects as long as they match or contrast nicely with your wall and environment colors. http://decoration-ideas.blogspot.com .
