The famous swashbuckler Blackbeard used his fearsome reputation rather than violence to achieve his goals - proof that pirate brains beat pirate brawn every time. Blackbeard reminds you that there is strength in numbers - so bring along a friend to help you take on the world!
OUR STRING DOLL ARTISTS are based in small villages in the mountains outside of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. Crafting String Dolls is the main occupation for most of our artisans, which means a reliable income and improved living standards for their families and communities in their economically developing regions. When they are not making string dolls, many of our workers spend time taking care of their families and tending to their vegetable gardens for self-sufficiency. Some have other jobs such as sewing or working in shops and restaurants.
