Everything Little Gypsies sells has a story; everything we do is built around eight core values: Ethical, Charitable, Traditional, Educational, Collectible, Limited Edition, Fair Trade and Eco-friendly. Together, they lay at the heart of our trading practices, with each precious piece meeting one or more of these strict standards.
Terms like Fair Trade and Charity are more than just words to us: they lay at the heart of who we are and what we do. Our ethnic inspired clothes, toys and decorations are beautifully made and eco-friendly – the perfect solution for conscious consumers who don’t want to sacrifice style for social responsibility.

CHARITABLE
Little Gypsies supports organisations that have a public mission to help communities and their local environment. We’re especially interested in neighbourhood projects that help create a better life for marginalised and underprivileged people. Little Gypsies also donates a portion of all proceeds to specific children’s orphanages abroad.

COLLECTABLE
Little Gypsies is a treasure-trove of rare children’s toys, clothes and decorative room pieces that are rich in history, culture and tradition. Each handcrafted piece varies in colour or design to ensure that no two are ever alike. These subtle differences are what make each piece unique in personality and beauty.

LIMITED EDITION
Sometimes we come across rare, one-off items during our travels and can't resist bringing them home. Individual in colour, style and shape, these limited edition pieces are unlike anything you buy in mainstream shops. While the product you receive may slightly differ from what you see on our website, we can guarantee that it will be just as beautiful and authentic.

FAIR TRADE
Whenever you see this tag, you can be assured that workers receive fair and prompt payment of goods, that they benefit from open and honest trade practices, and they are able to produce their art in a healthy, safe working environment.

ECO FRIENDLY
Little Gypsies supports environmentally sustainable practices wherever possible, where products are made with minimal impact on the environment. The majority of our toys, games and clothes are made with natural dyes, plantation timber and recycled materials. We actively support hand made products that employ traditional techniques that have been used for generations.
