General
The aim of this website is to feature crafts made and designed by Jamaicans. We search high and low to find great products we consider to be authentically Jamaican. ‘Authentic Jamaican craft’ in this context is defined as artisanal product, visual art, fine art, souvenir or craftsmanship-based design, which satisfies the following criteria. It is:
- made or assembled in Jamaica utilizing manual or mechanical techniques, in respect of which the direct manual contribution of the artisan remains the most substantial component of the finished product; and
- made or assembled by a Jamaican citizen or registered Jamaican company, and
- meets existing national quality standards
- is comprised of raw material components originating solely from Jamaica and used in a natural, modified or semi-processed state as an input to production; or utilizes at least 51% Jamaican raw material,
- or where the principal raw material is not made in Jamaica, has at least 70% local input. Local input is defined by the value of production that is incurred in Jamaica which includes “a significant change” of any imported material that is not available and not produced in Jamaica.
