HANDMADE IN NEPAL
Our recycled glass beads are handmade by artisans in rural Nepal, with jewellery production coordinated by a small workshop affiliated with the Nepal Leprosy Trust. The workshop provides employment opportunities for marginalised people, and our relationship with the team dates back to 2006.
MATERIAL, CRAFT & NATURAL VARIATION
Our recycled glass beads are handmade in southern Nepal, near the Indian border, from crushed bottles and jars using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Subtle variations in the colour, shape and surface of the recycled glass beads mean that every finished piece has its own individual character. Strong cotton thread is hand-knotted using macramé techniques to create a decorative finish at the back of the necklaces. For the bracelets, high-quality, extra-strong elastic thread sourced in the UK provides a comfortable, flexible fit.
MORE ABOUT THE ARTISAN PROCESS
- Sourcing the glass: Discarded glass bottles and jars are collected from streets, mountain trails and local villages, then cleaned and sorted by colour.
- Making the beads: The glass is crushed into small fragments before being heated and shaped into individual beads using traditional moulds and kilns.
- Threading by hand: The finished beads are carefully threaded by hand in Kathmandu: the necklaces onto strong brown cotton thread, and the bracelets onto strong UK elastic.
- Adding the macrame detail: Brown cotton is used to add the decorative and strengthening macramé detail to the back of the necklaces. Macramé is a textile-making craft that uses knotting techniques.
