Om Treasure Box
Om Treasure Box

The Om Keepsake Box is handcrafted from gray Indian soapstone, also called Palewa stone, which is locally sourced by artisans who handcarve these boxes. The om symbol in mother-of-pearl on the box's lid represents the sound of the universe, encompassing all sounds of creation. It's a beautiful, one-of-a-kind piece since each is crafted by hand from stone. Keep treasures, jewelry, crystals, and little mementos neatly tucked away in this decorative box. Beautiful sitting atop a stack of books, on a side table, or on a shelf. A thoughtful gift and a Ten Thousand Villages exclusive design.

THE MAKERS

TARA Projects stands for "Trade Alternative Reform Action." Working in a 125-mile radius of Delhi, TARA is a fair trade program for community development and business. The organization enables hundreds of artisans who create some of the major handicraft lines of North India to sell their products internationally. TARA is one of the pioneering Indian organizations in the field of fair wages, non formal education programs for children and women, health and environmental awareness and further development for its member artisans. Artisan benefits from TARA include medical insurance, interest-free loans and advances, a savings program and skills training. Ten Thousand Villages has purchased products from TARA since 1986.
