We
seek out items that will become part of the story of your life while
maintaining high standards of ethical sourcing. Items with a classic design
that can live on in your family forever to be loved, cherished and kept.
Buy Less, Buy Better.
A strange message for a shop to give, you may be thinking, but we want to
promote a lifestyle of appreciating and cherishing the items you choose to have
in life, keeping them to pass down through generations and holding onto them
for as long as possible. When choosing consumable products that are not
designed to last a lifetime, we look for items that are made with love and care
and do not harm the environment.
The Perfection Of Imperfection.
Small run, handmade, artisan and vintage products offer a beauty that is
tactile and to be celebrated. Unique markings on products like this can show
the makers touch, or the wear of time making each piece unique.
Quality Products.
Some people put a lot more thought, time and love into the items they create.
We spend our time carefully seeking and developing products that fit a few
simple criteria, they need to be durable, quality made with a simplistic,
sustainable and ethical approach. Products that stand the test of time, that
will age well, using the best materials and are not destined to end up in a
landfill.
Working Together.
We support the love and energy put into a product by it’s creator, the product
we carry is from people who share our vision of striving for more responsible
consumerism and care about the world we live in.
Giving.
We believe in giving; We are proud to be part of the 1% for the Planet global
movement and have committed to give 1% of all sales directly to environmental
not for profit groups whose focus is the protection, preservation and
restoration of our planet. This means every time you purchase from us, 1% of
the total value of your order goes directly to help an environmental cause.
Accountability and Ethics.
While we both take the upmost care when choosing items for the store, how we
live, and conducting our business in as ethical, and sustainable way as
possible, we never want to stop learning and doing better, to use our small
influence and this store to be force for good.
We are aware of fundamental issues and problems that have been facing people
and the planet throughout history, that now, thanks to strong and brave
individuals, are part of an ongoing and developing conversation which is
helping us all to learn about many of the basic human rights that we are not
all afforded and how inclusion, respect and fairness is not a given to
everyone. We are continually learning, growing and hope to be part of a loving
and compassionate awakening across the planet, as larger companies, big corporations
or those in power will never ever lead the way, so we have to.
Our mission is to embrace the beauty and protection of our planet, the
inclusion and respect of all humans, cultures and creatures. If you see
anything you feel in anyway that we do, sell or promote is not inline with
that, we welcome hearing from you, so that we can all continue to grow and be
part of a positive shift forward for humanity.
