how it started
Back to the year 2006. A silver factory in Nepal is in trouble. 12 silversmiths are left with no livelihood. Our founder knows these guys personally. The injustice of it won’t let her go. She completely changes her life and becomes an entrepreneur.

how we make a difference
We are a social enterprise. Our social mission comes first. Of course, you need to make a profit to continue to exist. But money is a means, not a purpose.

our artisans
The manufacturing sector is volatile. Trade flows to the place with the lowest prices. But we have a long-term vision. We believe in equality, independence, and most of all in co-creation. We learn from each other. We grow together and make a difference.

team & organization
Alone you go faster, together you go further. If we’ve learnt anything these past few years, that is it. You need many different talents to build a company. Especially in places where entrepreneurship isn’t necessarily logical. What connects us, are our values.
