Why Handmade:
“Art and love are the same thing: It’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you.” – Chuck Klosterman
When you make something, you leave a part of yourself in it. When you are finished creating, you take pride in the work partly because you see yourself in it. When you buy something someone else made, you yourself are reflected in that purchase. Whether it’s the colour, the texture, the shape, or just the mood you happen to be in, an item that has been crafted as an expression of the creative spirit person who made it is treasured and valued far beyond an item that was made for worldly mass consumption.
One-of-a-kind:
We live in a world where many things are mass produced. Not that there is anything necessarily wrong with that. But it’s also wonderful that more people everywhere are beginning to embrace things that are made by hand in small quantities.
No two handmade items are exactly alike. Variations in colour, shading, texture, shape and grain are inherent in a handmade item. No two items are alike, so that every single one is one-of-a-kind. This means that every handmade item you purchase is also one-of-a-kind. What’s not to like about that?
Handmade Items are Crafted in an Environment of Joy, Honour, and Respect:
Have you ever studied the workspace of a person who creates for a living? Their creations are almost always made in a space of joy, honour, and respect. Those same values somehow find their way into every product crafted for Royal Gems. Every inch of the wool that forms a hand knotted Kilim once flowed through the fingers of the Maker who knit the Kilim with intention and purpose.
