Ethically-Made Furniture

​

Much of the furniture sold in the U.S. has been sent overseas for production in countries with cheaper labor.  Second hand furniture can be a nice eco-friendly alternative which also helps prevent higher demand for cheap furniture.  (Try OfferUp or your local thrift store.)  And below are some fair trade and handcrafted furniture options made by artisans who were paid a fair wage..
