Cream-colored dog bones frame this hand felted and hand appliqued. Big felt button closure in red. The facility where these pieces are produced is an award-winning model of sustainability, which runs on solar electricity, collects rainwater, and recycles water on-site. By collaborating with this artisan group, it is helping to preserve the tradition of felt making in the area, promote eco-friendly business, and provide fair and safe employment for hundreds of artisan felt-makers, sheepherders, and seamstresses. Through our participation, we are aligning with the Alliance's central missions: To preserve traditional artforms and techniques; to provide steady employment for artisans around the world (with an emphasis on women), and to foster economically viable conditions for the practice of craft. By purchasing this design, you are joining our efforts to support artisans worldwide. Each design is as unique as the artisan who created it.
