2021 Christmas Gift Guide

This is the biggest Christmas gift guide that we’ve ever put together, and of course we encourage you to support these brands all year round, not just during the holiday season!
The brands we’ve featured all align with our values, and fit into one or more of the following categories: minority-owned, small businesses, female-led, B Corps, giving back to the community, environmentally-friendly or using recycled materials.
Yala
Of course we wouldn't leave ourselves out of a gift guide! Yala Jewellery is ethically made by talented artisans in Kenya from recycled materials and we are a Certified B Corp.
