OUR VALUES

We work with world-class artisans from around the globe to bring you a line of ethical, handcrafted homewares, lifestyle products and meaningful collections. We believe we should know the origin of the products we buy, as well as the impact of our consumption—not only on the environment, but also on the communities and individuals who created them.

SHOP HANDCRAFTED GOODS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

We believe it's important to stand behind true artisans, embracing the beauty of slow design and artisanal production—as an advocate, champion, and consumer.  We've built sustainable relationships with our artisan partners and their communities, allowing us to ethically trace each product from concept to completion.
