Cataloger Claire Gordon knew there was a market for earth-friendly furnishings and accessories with a bit of flair. In October 2004, she and her co-founders mailed the first edition of Viva Terra, a book offering high-end, eco-positive gifts and housewares.

Gordon has long been enamored of the catalog business.
