Barter was born from a belief that if we look to our natural environment and community, we will find everything we need to live sustainably and abundantly within our local environment. Therefore, embracing this belief and vision, our connection to local became the driving force behind us.
A balance between learning from local craft masters and local sustainable material potential, we strive to make products that are beautiful and purposeful, becoming valued family pieces that can be handed down over the generations, gaining the patina of time, our most valuable resource.
Our Company
We are an extremely passionate environmental product company who embraces a local community of artisans while placing nature on a pedestal above all else in our design approach. Our mission is to help connect sustainable goods to people that reflect the natural beauty and unique character of our incredible region whilst exposing an important story around the important species around us. We embrace many different materials and processes in our approach hoping to continue to learn about the best combinations for longevity and functionality.
As a company, we thrive on the connection between the land, the materials and the craftspeople - we are committed to protecting the environment and supporting local communities. Majority of our materials are sustainably sourced, ensuring that our products are made with the utmost care for the planet. We work closely with local suppliers and craftspeople to ensure that our products are not only of the highest quality but also have a positive impact on the communities we serve.
We are dedicated to creating beautiful, functional and timeless pieces that reflect the power of natural. From handcrafted furniture to beautiful serve and dinnerware, every item we create is designed to help you connect with nature in your daily life and last for generations.
Good things take time - every piece is handmade by a human, and most are made to order. Find our pieces in Montauk showrooms across the country, and at our flagship showroom in Vancouver. Find locations here.
