Empowering Communities Through Sustainable, Ethical and Innovative Practices
Cloth & Cord is a company deeply committed to making a positive impact while producing ethical and sustainable goods in both the United States and Africa. Blending the principles of AI/STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), the company creates responsibly crafted products that are not only affordable but also support talented artisans.
At Cloth & Cord, the process of creating their glass beads and metal pendants begins with recycled bottles and brass, transforming them into stunning pieces through the skillful hands of African artisans. These artisans meticulously hand-paint and mold the materials, infusing their unique craftsmanship and cultural heritage into every creation.
