About the Maker: Founded by Vinicius Vieira de Vieira and Carolina Vieira, natives of Brazil, Incausa operates both as a for-profit through the sales of its branded luxury goods and as a not-for-profit, channeling the proceeds from wholesale sales of indigenous-made items back to the artisans. All non-indigenous items are ethically sourced from fair-trade, small producers experienced in crafting premium products in countries like Brazil, Peru, Nepal, India, and the USA. Indigenous artisan pieces come directly from the artisans in Brazil and Peru who keep a strong connection to an ancestry that spans millenniums, creating a dialogue between different cultures and breaking a cycle of prejudice and discrimination.
