Mothusi Crafts
Millions of artisans around the world work in the handcrafts sector, sometimes in very remote areas and unfortunately most of them live below the poverty line. For this reason Mothusi Crafts was set up to buy and import products into the UK to create employment opportunities and help with initiatives that help artisans develop their skills and maintain employment. We have carefully sourced organizations in India and Africa who either belong to or have the working practices of the International Fair Trade Organization (IFAT) or affiliated networks such as the Asia Fair Trade Forum (AFTF) and Cooperation for Fair Trade in Africa (COFTA). Each item is designed and created with the greatest of care and as everything is handmade every item is unique.Visit mothusicrafts.co.uk > >
