Eye Heart Hand 29.jpg
Sometimes the urging of your conscience is so loud and impossible to ignore that it makes you restless enough to take action.

The eye heart hand collaborative creates authentic handmade rugs for the home from the land. We have taken steps that reflect our commitment to the people and places who make this collaboration possible. Our partnership with GoodWeave® certifies that no child, forced or bonded labor is used in the facilities where our rugs are made. All our rugs bear the GoodWeave® label. We applaud GoodWeave’s decades of global leadership in significantly reducing child labor and we fully support their initiatives to end child labor altogether.

The essence of our collaboration, across 3 continents and cultures, relies on the full contribution of each person. We stand by what we make and are proud to bring transparency to our supply chain. To reinforce this idea, each of our custom-size rugs is hand-signed by the designer in the U.S. (representing the eye), the shepherd in New Zealand (the heart of the land), and the GoodWeave®-certified rugmaker in India (the hand).


 

Purity & Sustainability for Generations

As a country and people, we New Zealanders hold the belief in ‘Kaitiakitanga’ meaning guardianship and protection of the land for future generations. our collaboration with eye heart hand is proudly committed to that.

The pure, premium wool in our rugs is sourced directly from High Peak Estate and the Guild family — the 2024 the Gordon Stephenson Trophy recipients and 2024 National Ambassadors for Sustainable Farming and Growing in New Zealand! The Guilds have been managing their single family farm on the South Island of New Zealand since 1973. The Guilds adhere to strict animal welfare standards for raising healthy sheep, as well as following ethical practices for shearing them. In addition, the Guilds are leaders in sustainable and regenerative farming and in conserving the native biodiversity of New Zealand, with James Guild having served as chair of the QE II National Trust of New Zealand.
