Silk & Snow

Since 2021, True North Aid’s "A Good Night’s Sleep" program (in collaboration with Silk & Snow) has provided vital sleep essentials to remote Indigenous communities across Canada. Together, we have aided 27 communities and distributed over 750 sleep sets. This past summer, we were invited by Bloodvein River First Nation in northern Manitoba to help deliver mattresses, bed frames, pillows, and sheets to members of the community. We witnessed firsthand the profound impact this initiative has on the community and were deeply moved by the people we met, and the stories we listened to. We are proud to share some of the stories from the individuals impacted by the "A Good Night's Sleep" program in Bloodvein, and hope these stories will inspire further support for True North Aid's crucial humanitarian efforts. Join us in making a difference from coast to coast. To learn more, read our short article or watch our video here: https://lnkd.in/gA4GcANu True North Aid

🌟 A Good Night's Sleep is more than just a bedtime wish—it's a necessity for health and well-being. True North Aid's, A Good Night's Sleep program has provided over 800 bed sets to 41 communities since 2021, in partnership with Silk & Snow. With your generous support, we're ensuring that Indigenous communities across Canada have access to the comfort of a new bed - just like those living in Cormorant Lake, Manitoba. Thank you to Rikki and her wonderful team of youth workers who were able to help deliver the beds to their elders/grandparents, "which added an additional sentimental element to the program by having our youth giving back to our elders."

Today we are thrilled to announce the launch of our very first capsule furniture collection: The Nara Collection. Named after the Japanese city (a nod to the Japandi design influence and use of Japanese joinery throughout the collection), this collection includes all-new nightstands and dressers to complement our signature wooden bed frames. Thoughtfully crafted from natural solid Rubberwood sourced from central Asia, this collection is not only beautiful to look at, but made to stand the test of time. We like to think of this line as a collection of “heirlooms” - furniture pieces you can pass on to future generations. It makes us feel good that we’re able to provide high-quality, durable furniture pieces that help turn our customers' houses into homes they can feel comfortable in.

At Silk & Snow, we’ve always had an appreciation and respect for quality craftsmanship. From our Canadian-made mattresses to our Portuguese-made bedding, we’ve never shied away from our passion for the details and quality that artisans impart in the fine works they produce. With this in mind, we wanted to create a collaborative collection that stood as a testament to our brand principles of quality materials and craftsmanship. However, it was also important for us to collaborate with a local artisan who shared our passion - that’s when we discovered Tamara “Solem” Al-Issa of Solem Ceramics. Tamara is a Toronto-based artist and ceramicist with an inkling for storytelling through her unique handcrafted pieces. We loved the passion she demonstrated in all of her works - and we felt as though her work with organic shapes and rich colours would fit nicely into Silk & Snow’s established product offerings. Supporting a local artist was just the icing on the cake. With that being said, we’re pleased to announce our limited collection of 100 vases in collaboration with Solem Ceramics. The collection launched today and features two different-sized vases, in two distinctly “Silk & Snow” colours. Explore the collection here: https://lnkd.in/eAiUqFin
