Better Together

Our mission is simple: to offer high-quality, unique products while delivering exceptional customer service and value. Our commitment to integrity and sustainability is reflected in every decision we make.

As business partners we are united by our passion to travel, but we are even more passionate about travelling with purpose - in search of the beautiful, the original, the handmade.

Fiona's expertise in Commerce and Education, alongside Susannah's background in Interior Design and Marketing, is enabling us to bring our passion project to life.

In our global shopping adventures, we are eagerly seeking pieces that are distinctive and rare. We are driven by a desire to create a business that brings joy to us - and to you - while ensuring we are part of the circular economy. We are also committed to sharing our journey with our adult children, teaching them the principles of running a sustainable business with integrity, the value of craftsmanship, and the importance of supporting diverse cultures and communities.

We wholeheartedly believe in the power of the village—a concept that has been invaluable in our respective lives as single mothers. The support of our own 'villages' has been the foundation for raising our individual families. We are committed to this philosophy by supporting our artisans and their communities within their villages. The power of the village is universal, embodying collaboration, kindness and care. We deeply value the exceptional craftsmanship of artisans and the diverse roles everyone plays in the village. The modern world needs more villages!
