Hi , Julie Emery, based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland Australia. I am a field collector with 20 years annual experience acquiring and trading in AUTHENTIC TRADITIONAL HANDCRAFT & TEXTILES from the highlands of Timor.
I am re-introducing KAPOK as an environmentally sound, sustainable bedding product and finding that there is a huge need in our ever more healthful conscious society.
I run various projects in Timor when I go there each year. One being the distribution of reading glasses....IF YOU WANT TO DONATE YOUR OLD GLASSES please contact me. I also help to support an orphanage in the town of SoE again any donations are gratefully accepted. Seed distribution to improve nutrition is high on my agenda too. Some plants have taken a while to adapt but now are well underway with varying successes.
By being on the ground every year for the last 20 I have developed relationships with the crafts people and weavers and been instrumental in ensuring the continuation of Timorese Cultural Handcraft.
Specialties:
Kapok Heavenly Head Organic and Calico Pillows and Bolsters for yoga, pregnancy, meditation & sleeping.
Specialising in Timorese Cultural Handcraft & Textiles of integrity. Old & New for your perusal. I pay the crafts person or weaver direct at the time of acquirement. I am blessed to be able to return annually to Timor and spend time in the field and have developed close relationships with the artisans.
