Our New Amor Collection Launches August 2017

We’re thrilled to be partnering with Faire Collection to launch our newest Amor bracelets, made in the Otavalo Highlands of Ecuador.

Artisans from Ecuador working with love is project

In collaboration with Faire Collection and the Andean Collection Workshop, we’re bringing fair-trade employment opportunities to artisans like Lupita, Maria Paz, and Marisela.

In Kichwa culture, red beads symbolize protection, while gold beads are reminiscent of corn, which has sustained life and brought prosperity to generations of Ecuadorians.

Faire Collection Workshop artisans receive fair salaries with overtime pay, paid vacation and sick time, parental leave, health insurance, and company lunches.

The new Amor, shipping in mid-August, comes with new vegan leather and an easy pull-tie closure. And it’s available for exclusive pre-order starting now.
