Why Choose our Fair Trade Wholesale Jewelry from Nepal?
Jewelry making is a family tradition in Nepal and is passed down from father to son. One family we have been associated with for over two decades works communally, pooling their resources, and training the younger family members to carry on the tradition. The eldest brother of this business has repeatedly commented on how their relationship with fair trade businesses, like Ganesh Himal over the years has helped them to be successful. Young adults, who were leaving this traditional work, are returning because the average wage for skilled jewelers is now better than that of many other jobs, affording them a secure and comfortable future.
Other jewelry artists are non-traditional jewelers who have apprenticed and become master jewelers. Now they reach out and teach others from poor villages so they too can earn an income vital to their families. Yet another jewelry workshop we work with employs both high and low caste jewelers-enticing them to put aside their cultural differences in exchange for good wages and working conditions.
