“From amethyst earrings made in Peru to a Phoenician blue decanter made in West Bank or a salt crystal glow lamp from Pakistan, they have a little something special for everyone. The store is thoughtfully curated with wares that are handcrafted and ethically-sourced, so you feel great knowing that something good is coming out of your purchase. It's a win-win!”

 

USA Today

“Ten Thousand Villages is...full of lovely gifts that are both beautiful and meaningful to more than just the recipient. The site works hard to ensure that artisans earn living wages and that some of the profits benefit charities that grow communities. From beautiful silk scarves and handmade jewelry to cute kitchen towels and home décor items like candle holders, Ten Thousand Villages has a big selection of gifts.”
