Fair Trade Gifts & Accessories


Traditional leatherwork artisans in India craft sandals and ornamental wear for horses and cows with embossing and embroidery. Utilizing their skill, HME’s design team was able to apply this traditional art form to other products, such as travel accessories and journals. The majority of leather used in India is “cruelty-free” – meaning only the skin from cows that have died of natural causes is used in production.

The copper bell ornaments in this catalog are traditionally used as cow bells in India. The distinct and unique tuning of each bell allows the owners to recognize their cows by sound. In this image, an artisan carefully crafts the bell’s shape, before passing it to the person who checks for sound and tonal qualty. During our vist to the community workshop, we were able to see each step of the process, spend time watching as artisans executed this centuries-old tradition.
