These fairly traded purses are designed in the UK and handmade in Vietnam. Originally rice farmers, earning a subsistence and irregular wage, the artisans/seamstresses making these purses now benefit from earning four times the national minimum wage, which provides them with a good standard of living and the chance to send their children to school. Each purchase helps us to create similar work opportunities for other disadvantaged women.

A lovely selection of soft leather purses in five cross seasonal colours; Bronze, Silver, Brown, Gold, Pink. Great for everyday use and ideal as the perfect gift.
