ur line of craft products come
directly from over 200 rural communities
of Nepal: from the indigenous Nomadic
forest dwellers to the average rural
community, working towards a better
future. The line was concieved to
improve the lives of remote people
through the appropriate market ctreation
of community based, environmental
friendly products, and sustainable
mobilization of local resources. |
| |
hese unique products are all
hand crafted by various artisans
utilizing their inherent skills
that have been handed down through
generations such as the Newars who
produce exquisite metal and stone
sculptures to the last nomadic indigenous
tribe, The Raute, who give us their
lifestyle bowls. Others are manufactured
by the communities in exchange for
solar electricity to power individual
homes, under a project supported
by UNDP. |
| |
hese unnique crafts retain and utilize
renewable natural resources of the region,
while providing income-
generating
opportunities to communities and
preserving indigenous trade. |
