Why handmade products?
arrow_backTo the overview23 April 2024 | Lübech Living
Making handmade products is one of our priorities.
Choosing handmade products is not just an investment in a beautiful and unique item, but also a way to support craftsmanship, culture, and sustainability. This is exactly why we take pride in making handmade products - it just seems like the right thing to do for us. Furthermore, it allows you to bring an authentic object and tradition into your home, and this make us very happy to offer.
Here are many of the benefits you gain when you buy a handmade product:
1. You limit the use of machines that emit CO2.
2. Every product becomes unique.
3. More people are in employment creating an income.
4. Handmade items often result in smaller quantities, limiting overproduction.
5. You support the culture for traditional craftsmanship
6. It feels meainingful and special to own something made with care and attention to detail.
