PEBBLE
Pebble products are made by Hathay Bunano, a company started back in 2004 by Samantha Morshead MBE. On moving to Bangladesh, Samantha saw the incredible poverty so started teaching the women knitting and crocheting skills. Soon her vision of bringing sustainable and flexible employment to rural and disadvantaged women became real.
Following WFTO accrediation, Pebble is currently the only guaranteed fair trade crochet toys in the world. It now employs over 5,000 women in 52 different regions of Bangladesh, and handmade products are still at the core of the business.
The employment is very much community based - the women are paid fairly and the work is flexible - they enjoy getting together to work, chat and share.
It's lovely to see these women with incredibly skilled hands able to work close to their homes, keeping families together and preventing the need for economic relocation to the cities.
And when every piece is made by hand they are all unique, meaning no two pieces will be exactly the same - you could say each one is a work of art!
A lot of brands have imitated Pebble over the years, but we're proud to stock the brand that first made crocheted fruit rattles popular! Still one of our bestselling ranges for babies, they keep coming up with new ideas to keep their artisans in Bangladesh busy, and babies entertained!

Always loved these bags and now have found one which is kind to the earth and looks so cheery and can be taken anywhere with all the goodies or everyday essentials if you're not using for groceries etc.
Very happy with my purchase, nice quality and colour. Perfect size
I ordered 2 green-bamboo and 2 white-bamboo toothbrushes as I was looking for completely plastic free toothbrushes. They came packaged in lovely thin cardboard slips and the toothbrushes themselves look and feel amazing. I’m a big fan and will be reordering!
GreenTulip is like shopping at your local independent shop on the high street. I like the choice of gift ideas and the pick of natural products.
I found the present I was looking for, which was quite exclusive and hard to find from Ampersand Fragrances that it's only stocked in specific shops. Delivery was really quick too. I would definitely recommend!
