Materials
Materials traced to source
Each primary material is traced back to the farm, mine, mill or tannery it came from.
Low-impact / certified materials
Materials carry a recognised certification (e.g. organic, recycled, responsibly sourced).
Origin
Country & region of making disclosed
Where the item was actually made is named, not hidden behind a flagship label.
Made at a single named workshop
The piece was assembled in one identifiable atelier rather than an opaque chain.
Artisans
Named artisan / workshop
The people who made it can be named and credited.
Hand-work hours documented
The hours of skilled hand-work that went into the piece are recorded.
Fair-labour & living wage
Wages and working conditions are documented and independently checked.
Footprint
Carbon footprint disclosed
The greenhouse-gas footprint of making the item is measured and published.
Repairable / built to last
The maker offers repair and the piece is designed to be kept, not replaced.
