Celebrate this holiday season with these delicate Quilled Paper Ornaments. Recycled paper is carefully wound around a quill, and the coils are then glued into intricate shapes. It's an art that dates back hundreds of years. Today, they're handcrafted by artisans working with Mai Handicrafts in Vietnam. Many of the artisans are women who are able to work in their homes using this traditional skill, earning sustainable incomes while caring for their children.
As pioneers of fair trade, Ten Thousand Villages brings conscious shoppers purposeful handmade goods for home and life. Our maker-to-market movement puts people and planet first, believing that what we wear, what we place in our homes, or give as gifts should be ethically and sustainably made. We value the unique nature of something that’s been crafted by hand and we invest in the life of the maker behind it. Long-term partnerships with women and marginalized communities in developing countries helps break the cycle of poverty and ignite social change so that together we thrive.
