OUR MISSION

Celebrating craftsmanship by designing
thoughtfully, engaging in ethical partnerships
and advocating conscious living.

CREATING SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS

Earth Heir® was founded to serve traditional artisans in underserved communities - we support their unique craftsmanship with holistic ethical business operations, including education, collaborative design partnerships, production & supply chain training, market access, financial support, and fair trade commercial practices. Our hope is for artisans to grow to be independent, be upskilled and develop sustainable livelihoods. This way the artisan sector as a whole becomes a means for economic development for communities.

PRESERVING HERITAGE CRAFTSMANSHIP

The techniques and skills involved in creating these art pieces have been developed over many generations by the artisans and their families, using locally sourced materials and unique processes. Earth Heir® works collaboratively with our artisan partners to preserve this craftsmanship for the future.

By combining traditional artisanal skills with contemporary design and product training for artisans, Earth Heir® is a true celebration of Malaysia’s varied heritage art forms and unique cultural narratives.

DESIGN LED

It is imperative that all our products are design led. Appropriate design is key to help access markets and create income streams. For every artisan group that we work with, we train the artisans on design & quality, pricing, production processes, to raise the skills of the artisans and the value of artisanal, heritage pieces.

SUPPORTING REFUGEE ARTISANS

Earth Heir® has partnered with the United Nations Refugee Agency via the MADE51 initiative to support displaced refugee artisans in Malaysia and provide dignity and income opportunities with their unique talents.
