A PEACE TREATY based in New York, is the trademark of luxe adventures they venture to fascinating countries seeking out the most beautiful handmade techniques and their makers. Their belief is that things made by human hands, imbued with the story of their maker, are the most beautiful and luxurious in the world.
APT has worked with artisans across ten countries, including working with a collective of widowed women in Kabul who are working to rebuild their dignity and independence, gain literacy skills, and garner viable incomes. Using their cultural knowledge and traditions, the women hand embroider exquisite one-of-a kind shawls. The Aymara and Quechua people of the Altiplano and Andes regions of Bolivia and Peru depend upon Alpaca farming and products for their livelihood. APT works with an all-women’s knitting cooperative that employs artisans from these indigenous groups to create beautiful scarves.
