Bali Animals Wooden Ruler With Two Cats

A brown wooden Fair Trade ruler  made from Albesia wood. Each item is individually hand carved and hand painted using non toxic dyes. About 20 artisans and their families are supported by the production of these types of item. To account for the wood used in production a tree planting scheme has been introduced by the organising body, Mitra Bali. 

This Fair Trade gift was made in Indonesia.

The Mitra Bali Foundation was established in 1993 and is based in Bali, Indonesia. As a member of WFTO and a non-governmental and non-profit organisation they act as a market and export facilitator for small craft producers.

Mitra Bali work within a framework of approx 100 producer groups employing over 1,000 artisans with access to a free design centre facility for producers which provides a library of books, current magazines and consultations with product designers. They also hold monthly workshops focusing on new trends, technical aspects of production, health & safety and the use of environmentally sustainable resources.

Our beautiful Round Shell Necklace on Coconut Beads was handmade by Mitra Bali artisans.
