Tara Treasures, is a brand inspired by the goddess Tara, who symbolises compassion and peace. The name itself reflects the business’s deep commitment to women empowerment. Tara Treasures' founders had a vision to create sustainable employment opportunities for the local artisans. They wanted to harness their incredible skills and craftsmanship to produce beautiful, ethically-made products. These women, often mothers, work from home or in small community workshops, allowing them to balance their work with family responsibilities. By providing sustainable employment, Tara Treasures is helping to give these women the means to support their families and communities.
The artisans use traditional felting techniques passed down through generations to create the beautiful designs that make Tara Treasures’ products so unique. This not only preserves their cultural heritage but also instills a sense of pride and accomplishment in their work. Each piece is a labour of love, crafted with care and attention to detail.
Tara Treasures is deeply committed to sustainability and ethical production practices. The felt used in their products is made from 100% natural wool, sourced from New Zealand. The wool is dyed using eco-friendly, non-toxic dyes, ensuring that the products are safe for children and the environment. Tara Treasures is a Fair Trade Certified brand demonstrating its commitment towards creating a more equitable and sustainable world.
