An old school lunch swap!

So with the leather production for Autumn/Winter 2011 in full swing, I am spending more time mainly at one of the leather factories that supports the Nepal Leprosy Trust.  Yesterday, I was going to work through the lunch break to get some things done, but Shanti and Man Bahadur insisted on me sharing the chapati/roti that Shanti had made and the boiled potato curry that Man Bahadur had brought from home.  Definately hit the spot!!  Glad I was able to return the favour by bringing out 3 fresh mangoes (in season and YUMMY) that I had got from a fruit vendor on the street.  Desert and all!

AURA QUE creates a range of stylish contemporary accessories manufactured by the Nepal Fair Trade Group to increase ethical production in the developing country of Nepal.

Each AURA QUE design is brought to life in a Nepalese factory that employs local people affected by disabilities, providing an income for themselves and their families according to fair trade principles.
Designer Laura Queening incorporates local materials wherever possible, such as Allo hemp produced from a Himalayan plant, handmade brass fittings, natural textured Lokta paper and the traditional woven cloth.

AURA QUE products use high quality 100% Buffalo leather that is a by-product of the food industry. AURA QUE products are individually hand crafted in Nepal, which may result in slight variations. The unique story behind each AURA QUE product enhances its charm!
