With a chunky glass bead and a Paua Shell on a leather thong this necklace is simple yet striking. I wear mine (a turquoise one) regularly and I always receive compliments!

Supplied by Namaste who have been trading fairly for over 10 years and who invest heavily in travelling to see their suppliers several times a year as well as speaking to them regularly.

Namaste buy most of their products directly from the primary producers and some from larger operations. All their suppliers ensure that their workers are paid a fair price per piece, which is above the national average, and that men and women are paid the same rate. In developing markets, such as Nepal, Indonesia and Thailand, they deal only with primary producers making advance payment for materials, workers and whatever else is necessary.
