The Artisana Collection represents work from multiple artists in the famous Taxco region of Mexico, best known for it’s silver jewelry. The artisans continue to produce traditional jewelry much like their ancestors. The groups who produce jewelry in this collection have formed cooperatives to pool together their talent and resources – the result has been a positive impact for the individual artisans and a bigger impact on the community.
Global Crafts works with a cooperative in the region that is made up of 26 jewelry makers who work collaboratively to sell a beautiful collection of jewelry. Artisans use a wide range of beautiful materials that range from abalone, mother of pearl, sterling silver, Taxco silver, and much more. The group has achieved stable income for many members of its community. This has led to community initiatives that include support of local schools and programming geared towards the youth. Artisans often work out of their homes and are paid fair wages. The Fair Trade jewelry is not only beautiful, but each purchase helps to transform lives.
