Altiplano is a partner of ours that works in the highlands of Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. In collaboration with local family businesses, cooperatives, as well as their own fair trade shop, they produce beautiful and innovative products. Each piece is a collaboration between the founder and designer, and the Mayan artisans, who bring traditional techniques and styles to the creation of each piece. Bringing fair trade and sustainable employment to the Guatemalan highlands, and beautiful pieces, each with a story to the western market is what Altiplano is all about. They have been investing in fair wages and long term employment in Guatemala for over 30 years now! In addition, they continue to partner in the region to support community development in the forms of education, family nutrition, environmental education and restoration projects.
