Why we love it
Features a bead and loop clasp. Approximately 55cm long.
'Pote' is the common name for these tiny colourful glass beads that are very popular in Nepali society and culture. Colourful pote jewellery is a symbol of luck for the married women in Nepal especially in Hindu communities. The pote beads used in Aura Que's jewellery designs are bought locally in Kathmandu.
Aura Que works closely with small producer groups in Nepal that are WFTO members to ensure healthy and safe work environments and payment of living wages. It also encourages trade for small Nepalese family businesses and charity handicraft units, aiming to slowly build long term relationships with these suppliers, under the same fair principles.
Handmade by Nabila and Rajesh alonside skilled artisans through their fair trade family business in Nepal. Nabila has taken over the business since her Fathers’ retirement, and they have been working with many of their artisans for over 25 years. They work with many women in the Kathmandu valley who make the pieces around their family commitments at home. This gives the women flexibility in their working hours, usually working alongside other family members, friends and neighbours to coordinate small productions. Nabila and Rajesh coordinate the designs and orders, distribute the materials to the women, and then collect the final pieces.

I purchased these laundry sheets as I do not now use washing powder. I also have a septic tank, which I am very conscientious about. I have looked at other sheets which require transport, but as these claim to be made in the UK I am all for cutting down the carbon footprint.
Good range of handmade soaps available at good prices, order +ame quickly and well packaged. Thank you
I found Greentulip whilst searching online. I ordered a beautiful baby grow, some wooden Teethers & a little comfort bunny. They all arrived beautifully wrapped in tissue paper& they arrived quickly too! I would definitely recommend them for extra special baby gifts.
I like these pads because they have survived the washing machine and they are soft but with just enough “grip” to clean well.
Gave this vibrant pink sunglasses case as a birthday present, friend was delighted with her present
