The Story Behind Jacinto&Lirio
(Spanish for Hyacinth and Lily)
Stylishness that Saves
In the world's waterways dwells a simple aquatic plant, the water hyacinth.
In spite of its seemingly innocent exterior, the water hyacinth (often miscalled the more popularly known "water lily") is in fact a invasive species that clogs up waterways and creates breeding grounds for mosquitoes. But Jacinto & Lirio (Spanish for "Hyacinth & Lily") sees so much potential in the water hyacinth, aiming to create fashionable items out of this unique material. Owning a one-of-a-kind Jacinto & Lirio bag shows that you have embraced the eco-friendly alternative by combating the spread of the water hyacinth. You have also helped Jacinto & Lirio
empower a community in Pampanga, Philippines and a special livelihood program of the Cora Cares Foundation, founded by the world-renowned designer Cora Jacobs.
