This item is made in Moradabad, India by 'Noah's Ark'. Noahs Ark was founded there before the concept of Fair Trade existed. Their objective was to eliminate exporters taking advantage of artisans and their crafts. They provide regular employment to 300 people, run evening schools for children in remote villages and help artisans to build and establish their own workshops. A portion of Noah's Ark's profits is also allocated to run a school providing free education to nearly 50 of the artisans' children.
