Heap of Love Elephant Family
Heap of Love Elephant Family

A pile of adorable elephants, this hand-painted ceramic miniature is a wonderful gift for a young parent who is lovingly carrying a lot of weight (metaphorically and, likely, literally) on their back right now. Our fair trade partner Manos Amigas works with small workshops across Peru, helping them find new markets for their products and supporting health and education in maker communities.

THE MAKERS

Deep and lasting relationships are essential to this family-run business, whose name means "hands joined in friendship." They bring the wares of 60 workshops across Peru - gourd carvers, ceramicists, jewelry makers and reverse-painted glass artisans - to market. They create a variety of exquisite handicrafts that tell stories of tradition and resilience. "I want to keep going, keep working to get ahead. My work is a happiness." - Eulogio Medina
