This smooth stone is sanded and carved with the word "LOVE" in India by Tara Projects, a fair trade program for community development and business. Tara enables several hundred artisans who create some of the major handicraft lines of north India to sell their products internationally. Tara is one of the pioneering Indian organizations in the field of fair wages, nonformal education programs for children and women, health and environmental awareness and further development for its member artisans. This stone makes a lovely paperweight, or conversely, in times of stress, an excellent worry stone. Fair Trade.
