Introducing
Paper Rain
Paper Rain is a family owned brand based in Marlborough, NZ. We (Indigo & Wills Rowe) co-founded in 2013 wanting to connect people and the products they buy with the people who made them via fair trade, hand-crafted and organic production. We live in Picton with our young daughter, Ada, and our collie x hunter way pup, Raglan. We enjoy eating good food, yoga and spending time in native bush.
At Paper Rain, we only create goods that have been sourced ethically, crafted naturally and then passed forward mindfully. Goods that honour their past, enrich the present and influence a better future.
We love collaboration and working with like-minded people. Currently, we work with 30 artists across the globe as well as incredible ethical suppliers in India, Nepal and right here in New Zealand.
Ethical goods for radical change.
