Description

This minimalist menorah is handcrafted from wrought iron by artisans working with Noah's Ark, a fair trade organization in Moradabad, India. The cost of metals has skyrocketed in recent years, which has had a devastating effect on the local economy and on the lives of individual artisans. Noah's Ark has worked hard to train artisans to use alternative metals and materials and to create appealing designs.

Ten Thousand Villages is a nonprofit fair-trade pioneer selling handmade goods from artisans around the world, including menorahs and a Jewish blessing garland.

It began in 1946, when Edna Ruth Byler, a Mennonite volunteer from Akron, Pennsylvania, met skilled embroiderers in Puerto Rico's La Plata Valley. She paid them a fair price, sold their needlework to neighbors from the trunk of her car, and reinvested the earnings. With Mennonite Central Committee support, that grew into partnerships in more than 30 countries; the name Ten Thousand Villages came in 1996. It is a founding member of the World Fair Trade Organization.

Its menorahs come from partners like Noah's Ark in Moradabad, India, working in aluminum, iron and recycled bicycle chain.
