Artisans & Their art forms
CERAMICS
The beautiful work of human hands comes to life when a ceramicist shapes earthenware materials, like clay, with their own hands to create stunning pieces.
After the ceramic items are allowed to dry, they are placed in a special oven known as a kiln. The high temperatures inside the kiln remove any moisture left in the clay, causing the piece to harden. Many times, intricate designs are painted and a glaze is brushed onto the piece as well, which contains ingredients that melt in the intense heat of the kiln and form a glassy coating on the surface. True works of are!

Sarita S.I ordered a dress & although I love free shipping I paid a very reasonable charge to have it delivered a bit faster. My dress arrived very quickly & I love it :)) I’m not new to Fair Trade but this was my first time shopping at this store. I will definitely be back!
Ruth S.I have always enjoyed shopping here for gifts. My now husband and I chose to set up our wedding registry here, and it was such a pleasure working with Julio from start to finish. He helped guide us through the whole process, and made the shopping experience wonderful for our friends and family (both in person and online).
Debbie S.Lovely little fair trade store. You can find gifts for all here or treat yourself to something special. You'll be pleasantly surprised at the variety of goodies here from clothes, jewelry, foods, children's items and even my favorite, hats!
