Faire Goods: Textiles, Rugs, Iron & Glassware

You need only to look to Jaipur's Amber Fort (pictured above) to get an appreciation for the rich, artistic heritage that is to be found throughout India's many regions and communities.

As a country with centuries-old traditions of carving, textile making, and glass blowing, it may come as no surprise that a large portion of Faire's best-loved pieces can be traced back to co-ops and artisan workshops throughout India.

We work closely with a select handful of companies (currently 7), all of whom are female-owned and operated.

At the forefront of each of these businesses is a respect for the people they employ and a love and appreciation for the traditional techniques and craft skills they uphold. 

In their own words:

Spending time with our vendors, the artisans, and in the communities where our products are made is the highlight of what we do. We meet so many extraordinary people on our journeys and we feel grateful to be able to share their stories with you, and to support them and their families through the sale of our products.
