Gifts From South America
There is a story that when the Mayan people have worries, they tell them to their worry dolls and place them under their pillows at night. By the morning, the worry people will have taken all their worries away.
From South America, a vast area rich in such stories and legends, there comes a cornucopia of Mayan artefacts – tiny little worry dolls, haki sacks, colourful beaded bracelets and necklaces, as well as rainsticks, panpipes and flutes.
Our supplier has been trading in Fair Trade goods since 1993, and has stayed true to the Fair Trade principles in all that time. They find new and beautiful hand made goods and then develop long-term relationships with the makers (usually individual artisans) so that they can provide reliable quality and supply. They do not buy from large factories, and they believe (as we do) that it gives people in developing countries a way of building a dignified and independent existence. They believe (as we do) in sustaining natural handicrafts that do not damage the local environment.
