Fair Compensation for Artisans
The majority of our artisans are independent contractors who operate their own businesses and set their own prices.We believe in fair compensation for their remarkable craftsmanship and pay them what they deem appropriate. As a result, our prices may reflect changes in the artisans' rates, especially considering the rising cost of living in San Miguel de Allende.
FIRST AND FOREMOST
Employee Well-Being
Our workshop serves as a space for assembly, painting, and packaging. Our dedicated team there is compensated well above the national average and enjoys benefits such as health insurance and retirement plans. We prioritize the safety and well-being of our employees by importing Benjamin Moore's Aura paint from the US, which is non-toxic and zero VOC, ensuring a safer environment for our workers, clients, and the planet.
