The giveaway

Today we are giving away a gorgeous Air and Earth Kenyan Necklace from Gandhara Designs.  Here is some info about Gandhara Designs from their website:

“We are an exclusive online boutique specializing in one-of-a-kind, heirloom quality artisanal jewellery and  accessories that are hand-crafted by artisans around the world using centuries-old techniques and master craftsmanship. We are the sole Canadian retailer of many of our products, making them attractive to globally-conscious buyers seeking unique pieces that increase in value and can be passed down through the generations.

Built upon a Direct Trade model of social entrepreneurship, Gandhara Designs empowers artisans across the developing world to end their own poverty and become active agents of social change. The Direct Trade model means that, wherever possible, we work directly with the artisan to purchase their crafts at their asking market price. In cases where additional support is needed to ensure the highest standard of artisanal quality, we work with  locally-based value adding organizations (e.g. Kazuri Fair Trade Cooperative and Zardozi: Markets for Afghan Artisans).”
