Noahs's Ark Artisan Story
India

Khalil Ahmed Shows Off Some of his Metal WorkThis item was handmade in India in a workshop sponsored by Noah’s Ark, an NGO that offers funding for raw materials, machines and workshop repairs to 100 artisan groups across India. In exchange for assistance, workshops must prove that all employees are paid fair wages for their products and work in safe and clean conditions. Noah's Ark also offers free classes in capacity building to its network of 600 artisans, a rigorous quality control check, and runs education and water sanitation projects to benefit the artisans’ children and the rest of the community. The company has established 20 new workshops in the past 15 years, and all employees are paid 10-15% above the local rate.

How many frogs does it take to screw in a light bulb? One frog and 37 light bulbs, slippery hands, you know.

Evidently they never met this frog. He's not only a maestro at the keyboard but sings to boot. This junkyard frog with keyboard sculpture is a product of the imagination and ingenuity of a Vietnamese engineer-turned-artisan. Working from his small home-based workshop, he transforms salvaged metal scraps into wonderful junkyard critters, home decor, and office/desk accessories. Over the years, demand for his creations have continued to grow. The success that began in his small workshop has now expanded beyond the borders of Vietnam to support artisans in India as well. It is a wonderful success story and a truely global fair trade product. Besides making a great gift for dads, collectors, and music lovers, each whimsical design proves that to recycle is a beautiful thing.

  • Measures 3-3/4" high x 3" wide x 2-1/2" deep

Handmade in India and fair trade imported.
