about the artisan
we work with a small co-op of artisans who fairly purchase extra beeswax from a local bee farmer (and his gourds too!) to create our gorgeous calabash lanterns. It’s where tradition meets sustainability! Our artisans take pride in creating natural candles and calabash lanterns, all locally sourced and fairly purchased, Each piece is handcrafted with care, illuminating your space while honoring our planet. Join us in celebrating craftsmanship that shines brightly and responsibly. Our group lives and works outside of Kigali in its rural farm lands.
Testimonials
One little world fair trade is amazing, I absolutely love everything in this store. It's my go to for gifts and extra nice things for my home. Kudos to Jodie and her team/family for creating such a warm, thoughtful and positive presence in our neighborhood. I learn something new every time I go and I can't wait to attend some of the live workshops!
I've bought a few things from One Little World that are used and enjoyed regularly in my home (exp: felt mistletoe decoration, dryer ball). Both are still in very good condition even after years of use. I also appreciate having this option to support more civil and dignified working conditions for people who create these products.
