Brooklyn Haberdashery Information

Just like Brooklyn Haberdashery, many of our suppliers are themselves very small businesses. We know each one personally, have visited many of their workshops, and our partnership with them is an investment in their talents. In a society that favors low prices above all else, we know we are going against the grain. And we're okay with that. We want to live in a world that elevates skilled artisans doing ironwork, leatherwork, and glasswork...and also wood bending, bladesmithing, and ceramics. As makers, we want our hand crafts appreciated. As a business, we feel responsible and privileged to support other makers by offering their hand-crafted tools and supplies to you. We seek fair trade, natural materials, and sustainability - not because it's a fad, but because that's simply the way things make sense to us. The team of people we employ, whom we affectionately called the haberdashers, represent our Brooklyn community -- all are talented makers in their own right. Among their many talents, we count: crochet pattern design, garment sewing, industrial design, and costume production. About Our Founder, Kristin Axtman
