Behind the seams

We like to take it slow simply because it is better for Mother Earth (Yes, We love Her!). Most of our items are only available for pre-order to avoid excess waste.  Though, It may take a few extra days for you to get your order; Rest assured, it is worth the wait. All thanks to the people behind the seams. 

Here at tela, all our items are made in a production facility in the Philippines. We pay them above minimum wage, and we provide all government-mandated benefits, meal and transportation allowances, and medical insurance. 
We also make sure that they are given a safe working environment.
