We’re helping our friends at Nest, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering responsible artisan businesses and preserving cultural craft traditions across the globe, celebrate the launch of their Varanasi Project with a special week-long flash sale of Nest necklaces this week.
Starting today, through Sunday, May 19, you can purchase one of these hand-cast brass pendants strung on a leather cord, crafted by Nest artisans (husband and wife team Anton and Benta) in their new workshop in Nairobi.
Each piece is $55, with $40 of that going back to Nest.
Your proceeds will support better working conditions internationally, through Nest’s collaborations with artists and craftsmen.
Nest’s work towards lasting social impact for communities through sustainable business is something we can get behind. And here’s your opportunity to do so, too!

Next up on Nest’s lineup is their Varanasi Project, the creation of a community center in Varanasi, India being designed by world-renowned architect David Adjay for the benefit of the community’s practitioners of an ancient tradition of handwoven silk.
Check out more info on Nest, and their Varanasi Project, over here.
