Reasons to Choose Handmade

Reasons to Choose Handmade

Made personally just for you…

Handmade products are not mass produced in industrial factories, but are made personally just for you. Your handmade product reflects who you are. They are unique pieces of craftsmanship, each item distinguishable by its nuances, making it personally yours.

Each one tells a story… 

When you wear a handmade product, listen to the story it’s telling you. Admire the intricate patterns echoing cultural diversity and appreciate the ornate embellishment techniques passed down from generations. Your handmade piece was made by a single person who learnt the techniques from his father, who in turn is passed it down from his forefathers. Your piece tells the story of its maker… of his time and patience and love for the craft. Listen to that story.

Higher quality and finesse…

Due to the large volume manufactured, factory made products are of inexpensive quality as producers attempt to lower costs by selecting low cost raw materials. Therefore, they are less durable and remain in the fast fashion category. However, raw supplies for handmade crafts are hand selected by Artisans themselves and are more durable as each stitch is made with more precision and care, providing you with the highest quality and finesse.

Supports tradition and culture…

Handmade products radiate culture as the embroidery techniques employed are exclusive to the regional culture of the Artisan at work. When you purchase a handmade product, you allow the individual to bask in the glory of his traditions and that of his ancestors, celebrating age-old learnings. You stand as a beacon of empowerment as you simultaneously support culture and traditions.

 

Empowering local businesses…

When you purchase a handmade product, you empower local communities. By going against the all consuming wave of corporate power, you help communities in distant regions by providing benefits that will trickle down through generations to come. By returning the artistic integrity and responsibility to its rightful beholders, you help nourish the economy at the grass root level, giving them a chance they deserve.
