We believe the throwaway culture of modern consumerism is not just wasteful, but also the root cause of some of today’s most challenging problems. Products often are not made to last and are not treasured due to the use of cheap materials, a lack of craftsmanship and a disconnect between maker and consumer. Mass production may have its place for some goods, but not ours.

We carry only goods that are made individually or in small batchesβ€” handcrafted by skilled and passionate makers who have developed their talents through hours, days and years of honest dedication to their craft.

We are committed to supporting ethical production practices, use of organic and sustainable materials, and local sourcing of components whenever possible. We strive to forge human connections between consumer and maker by sharing the story behind the goods we sell, helping people to feel more connected to the items they surround themselves with and better appreciate their value.
