Craftspring is a fair trade company that works with artisans in Kyrgyzstan to create beautiful handmade felted wool products.
Craftspring’s mission is grounded in entrepreneurship and the belief that without an economically sustainable market, many handmade crafts and traditions will disappear. Craftspring is a commercial enterprise driven by a social and cultural goal. They hope to slow the migration away from traditional crafts and build the market effervescence essential for artisans to maintain their livelihoods and local customs.
The quality and “soul” of Craftspring products are central to their business model. They strive to craft long-lasting products, whose beauty relies on a sustainable, responsible, and wholesome production process.
Craftspring partners with workshops anchored in their communities, who source local materials, employ local men and women, and provide employees with fair wages and comfortable working conditions. Their design input also focuses on reviving traditional details, shapes, and methods of production.
In those rarely heard of places on the edge of our mental maps, at the margins of our global world, Craftspring is dedicated to supporting crafts entrepreneurs who are working hard to preserve their traditions and the beautiful gestures of their communities.
