Product detail

This product was manufactured by an artisan felting business in Kathmandu, Nepal under fair trade principles which ensure a fair wage and safe working conditions. Purchase of this product supports a socially responsible enterprise and supports economically disadvataged groups through commerce._x000D_ Meet the Artisans_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Walking into the Kathmandu production center’s reception you are immediately greeted by a cheerful ‘Namaste’ (‘I Salute the God Within You’) with hands pressed together in a prayerful expression. Proceeding into any of the production halls you’ll be greeted by a complete chorus of the same as dozens of ladies press felt into a variety of shapes, while others stitch, needle and applique to finish hundreds of different styles of decorative items for export._x000D_ _x000D_ Sheep’s wool is an amazingly adaptable fiber. It can be dyed any color and when hand felted using warm mildly soapy water it can be molded into any shape, or then cut and sewn together as per your imagination. Because the felting and most of the stitching process is all done by hand with natural materials that can be sustainably harvested, hand felted products have a relatively soft impact on the environment. Commercial exports of felted products from Nepal have grown exponentially since around 2000, benefitting thousands of mostly women workers, production managers and family businesses who help support their families and educate their children with their earnings._x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_
