Our Polar Bear Bonnets are handmade to order from our very talented team of women. Each woman works from their own home around their own children and family commitments within a small rural province of China. They also pack and ship each item from their den to yours.  We love that each item has been made by only one artisan from the very start to the very finish while empowering extremely talented women to work independently. They no longer need to leave children behind to  work in a factory environment which are often located inside the cities.  Each item takes roughly 1-2 weeks to create and 5-10 working days to ship. We are a slow fashion brand.
