One Fair World -- a Salem gem

 nativity

We are starting a Nativity Club at One Fair World.  In mid-October we will hold a special showing of our nativities after regular store hours.  If you would like an invitation to this event, please e-mail, call, or sign up in the store.  You will also receive a free nativity ornament with the purchase of two nativity sets. 

We will keep a record at the store, so you can purchase these sets at different times.  Our handmade nativities from around the world feature unusual materials (olive wood, recycled paper, ceramics, cloth, capiz shell, wheat straw) and interesting figures.

One of Salem's gems: A message from One Fair World (474 Court St.)

Another unsolicited plug for one of Salem's unique treasures:

The sun has arrived, and our garden pots and other outdoor items will help you make the most of it. We have kites, mats, windchimes, and more. Come visit us to find that perfect addition to your summer.

Pottery from Cameroon

Through our friends at Ten Thousand Villages we can offer this charming pot from Cameroon, with a pair of friendly, terra cotta chameleons pearched on its lip. These pots are made at the PRESCRAFT pottery center in Bamessing-Nsei, which provides a sustainable living for more than 70 artisans, while running a reforestation project with local farmers. You can learn more about this project at the PRESCRAFT and Ten Thousand Villages websites.
