FAQS

ABOUT

What is Afield

Afield is a digital platform that celebrates the work of invited Artisans and Creative studios. It is a resource where customers can discover and acquire authentic craft personally from these curated studios.

New creatives are published regularly. We invite you to subscribe to our platform to gently receive our Editorials and be among the first to be introduced to our Creatives and their Craft as they join our platform.


Sustainability

Afield is built on a less-is-more philosophy. We share with our sellers and customers an appreciation for artisanship, authenticity and integrity. In a time of fast fashion and consumerism, it’s our aim to keep human connection at the heart of commerce and a deep respect for quality and authenticity of modern craft.

Everything on Afield comes directly from the studio of its maker, and every object or piece of furniture is either made to order, a one-off piece or part of a small production run. Artisanal processes represent an authentically sustainable, human-centred approach to production. Often made by hand using raw materials, artisanal objects are often individual and designed to endure.

When you purchase items on Afield, you contribute to sustaining and supporting traditional and progressive craft and techniques.

When you place an order, the studio ships your purchase directly to you.


Can I purchase from multiple Sellers at once?
