Aurea Accessories was founded by Cristiane Kimura to support golden grass crafts and the artisans who make them in Tocantins, Brazil. Golden grass grows only in Tocantins and can be harvested just once a year after seed maturation and dispersion. The local environmental agency, Naturatins, has implemented harvesting regulations to ensure the conservation of the region's bio/diversity and the sustainable harvest of golden grass. Naturatins trains and certifies artisans in these practices. Aurea only works with partners that are certified by the agency.
