Story Behind this Bath Stool
Throughout the Indonesian island of Bali, small craft producers struggle to compete in a competitive marketplace. While demand is high for traditional Balinese craft-works, only large producers have the means and capacity to compete. To promote the unique arts of small artists and to combat their marginalization, nonprofit organization Mitra Bali works directly with producer groups, employing over 1,000 men and women, helping them to establish pricing and distribute their work throughout the world. Mitra Bali markets its artisans silver jewelry, sustainable wood and bamboo products and one-of-a-kind ceramics.
What is Gaiam Fair Trade
Fair Trade promotes and supports wages that are fair as it relates to each geographic region, meaning they help artisans and crafts people earn a wage they can live on and that is relative to other skills and trades in their local economic system. Fair trade organizations benefit artisans they trade with by paying between 15% and 30% of the retail price of products to the artisans.
