A Partnership for impact

By working with Nest to source handcrafted products and materials, Bronwen Jewelry is advancing transparency, social wellbeing, and economic opportunity for global artisans and US makers.

76% of the handcraft businesses in the Nest Guild are woman-owned or -led, and employ an 88% female workforce. Research shows that women are more likely to invest their income in their families' health and children's education which leads to improved outcomes for their families, communities, and future generations.

Your purchases provide artisan enterprises with vital income to keep their doors open and their workers employed.

the craft impact

Through programs that support the wellbeing of artisans both in the United States and globally, Nest is bringing radical transparency and opportunity to the informal handworker economy.
