Sustainability is not a straight line
As a small brand, we know that there is no way for us to 'buy' ourselves out of this mess. But we do have the opportunity to implement changes to our lives to make a small difference as individuals. If we can all make a small difference this becomes a big collective change.
We are a small and mighty team that believe in the power of lifting people up through fair and decent work and a strong commitment to environmental standards.
Mission-Led Business
We were founded in a hope of proving to the world that good business, can and should be the norm.
Our mission is to help the world fall back in love with slow living, choosing things carefully and made to last.
We curate fair products, made with natural materials from around the world to your door.
All our products are selected from mission-driven small and micro businesses who exist to create positive impact.
