The Story of the Fairtrade Folded Cone Black-Gold-White
The Fairtrade Folded Cone in black, gold and white is a decoration with a story worth telling. Each cone is carefully handmade from paper created out of water hyacinths—plants that grow in abundance in Bangladesh, where they block waterways and attract swarms of mosquitoes. By transforming these invasive plants into something beautiful, the artisans help restore balance to nature while giving the material a completely new life.
Behind every cone lies the skill of Fairtrade craftswomen who fold and shape the handmade paper with patience and precision. Their work not only results in a unique Christmas ornament but also ensures a fair income and dignified working conditions for the women and their families. It’s a simple decoration, yet it carries with it care for people and planet.
The cones come as a set of three, beautifully packed in a pouch, ready to become part of your festive home. Hung in the tree, displayed on branches or styled around a table, they add an elegant touch of black, gold and white with a story full of meaning.
And if you love soft colours, you’ll also find a refreshing mint version in our collection.
By welcoming these Fairtrade cones into your home, you bring in more than just Christmas cheer—you embrace sustainability, fair trade and a celebration of creativity from Bangladesh.
