Unique jewellery, accessories, and homeware items.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Six Degrees thinks of itself as an online ‘department store’ selling unique and individual fair trade and handmade items personally sourced from social enterprises and artisans based in developing countries. Focusing on products with high social consciousness, you will find unique jewellery, accessories, and homeware items made from sustainable or up-cycled materials.

WHY THEY’RE CONSCIOUS

All Six Degrees products are either created using up-cycled materials, such as wallets and purses created using up-cycled motorbike tyres in Cambodia, or using sustainable materials, such as Tagua and Acai Nut jewellery from the Ecuadorian rainforest. All producers have been selected due to their high social consciousness and/or fair trade status.

It is more than just sourcing products, it is finding the story behind them. It could be the story of the bullet jewellery artisan who can fund both of his daughters to go to school through selling his work, as well as running a Ministry for street children, or discovering the history of Tagua nut, plastic’s predecessor, and how indigenous communities in the Amazon Rainforest are relearning tradition skills in harvesting and crafting the nuts to create unique and striking jewellery pieces.

Six Degrees also supports Missione Possibile Hong Kong, a charity working with and developing two schools and operating a mobile clinic in rural Cambodia.  10% of Six Degrees annual profit is donated to their work.

WHAT’S THEIR FIGHT 
PROTECT THE PLANET: They are using up-cycled and naturally sustainable material.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE: They are offering an international retail platform for the diverse range of charities, social enterprises, and artisans that they work with.
