We unite this durable leather with cork crafted from leftover wine bottles and upcycled natural rubber and then screen print our logo on thr rear of each coaster.

OUR PURPOSE
Story behind the Name: “Corktown” is not only one of the oldest neighborhoods in Detroit but is one of the first places where a “Pingree potato patch” popped up. Detroit Mayor Hazen Pingree gave 430 acres of land and seeds to Detroiters to grow their own food during the nationwide depression of 1893. We honor his commitment to service above self with these coasters.
Your coaster is crafted with small batch leather reclaimed from the production of new cars. So, your Corktown Coasters may have a texture and shade that varies slightly from the leather pictured.
