The idea behind Dalit Goods came about as a result of a trip to India. Whilst there we began to notice a large number of smashed clay pots around the slum areas of Mumbai. These clay pots turned out to be drinking pots which for thousands of years the Dalit people have often been forced to drink from and then smash on the ground as a sign of their supposed untouchability.

It is this powerful symbol of oppression that inspired us to launch our range of Dalit-branded products.

Every purchase of a Dalit candle contributes directly to our mission of empowerment. Our terracotta candles are lovingly handcrafted by the resilient Dalit community, providing them with dignified livelihoods and sustainable income opportunities.

At our core, we are committed to fostering positive change and social impact. By supporting Dalit Goods, you are not only embracing ethical consumption but also championing the rights and well-being of the Dalit people.

Our beautiful potted candles sit perfectly in your home or garden. Once finished, why not reuse your pot into a plant pot or pen pot?

All Dalit candles are handmade by the Dalit people of India and the purchase of these candles supports our work with street children of this people group.
