Fair Trade Gifts
Fair trade items are decorative handicrafts/ethnic art and crafts which are imported into the UK from all around the world. All the goods are commissioned from the artist or craftsman at source in the country of origin and only the finest quality work is selected. Advanced payments are made to enable them to purchase raw materials and every effort is made to ensure that all carved items are made from sustainable cultivated timber and that non-fade child-safe acrylics are used on all painted products. The direct trading policy provides families in some of the poorer regions of the world well-paid and regular employment.
