Artisan Story
Made by artisans at Johra & Bohra Handicrafts in Behat in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, India, products are offered through Mira Fair Trade.
Growing up in India, Meera Viswanathan always enjoyed shopping at places where she could buy directly from the producer - a personal interaction that she missed in the big shopping malls of the United States. The artisans she met shared stories of their lives, and their skills fascinated her. She founded Mira Fair Trade in 2008.
Meera also became involved with groups that work on community projects, such as building schools, digging wells, and working on irrigation and water projects. Thanks to these efforts, some dying arts and crafts were preserved.
As the famous quotation goes, “If you educate a woman, you educate the entire family.”
Mira Fair Trade hopes to empower women and underprivileged artisans by helping them attain long-term sustainability and economic independence through the Fair Trade model rather than via traditional charitable donations. They are excited to offer their customers a wide variety of eclectic and unique home decor products made ethically with many recycled materials!
