Brand Values

• •Authenticity: Sourcing genuine, handcrafted items that tell a story.
• •Quality: Ensuring products meet high standards of craftsmanship.
• •Cultural Appreciation & Preservation: Promoting understanding, respect for, and continuation of Eastern traditions and artistry.
• •Ethical Sourcing & Artisan Support: Believing in fair trade practices and supporting artisans and small communities.
• •Customer Satisfaction & Connection: Providing an exceptional shopping experience and fostering a connection between customers, the art, and the artists.
• •Infusing Aesthetics and Wisdom: Committed to blending Eastern aesthetics and wisdom into unique products that are both modern and historically rich.

Best Practices

• •Emphasize Storytelling: For every product or communication, find the narrative. Talk about the origin, the artisan (if possible), the cultural significance, or the traditional techniques used. This reinforces authenticity and cultural appreciation.
• •Use Evocative and Respectful Language: Choose words that convey beauty, tradition, craftsmanship, and respect for the cultures represented. Avoid overly casual slang or jargon that might detract from the serene and appreciative tone. Words like "heritage," "artisan," "handcrafted," "legacy," "wisdom," and "authentic" align well.
• •Maintain Visual-Verbal Harmony: Ensure that the tone of the copy matches the aesthetic of the visuals used on the website and social media. If the images are elegant and serene, the language should be too.
• •Educate and Inform Gently: Share cultural insights and details about the products in an engaging way that adds value for the customer, rather than just listing features. This positions the brand as a knowledgeable and passionate curator.
• •Foster Connection and Warmth: Write in a way that feels inviting and aims to build a community around shared appreciation for Eastern cultures. Phrases that speak to shared values, finding empathy, or feeling a connection can be powerful. Always ensure interactions, even in customer service, reflect this warmth and respect.
