The Darius Tobing Foundation is a self funded social organization dedicated in helping people in need.

We establish a network of helping hands to work against poverty regardless of race, gender, religion, belief or ethnic origins. We provide hope and opportunities to those who have lost hope and were never given an opportunity in their simple quest to have a better life.

Paisley Things is a program of The Darius Tobing Foundation. This program was established to give help and support to local artisans in their homes and in their villages, with the aim to curb the migration to the large cities in Indonesia.

We view handmade crafts as cultural heritage and support artisans to pass those beautiful skills on to new apprentices. We hope to help each artisan to become entrepreneurs.

Paisley Things supports local artisans to produce an eclectic mix of beautifully handcrafted items for you and your home.

Our products are inspired by the raw materials available to the artisans within their area, and we deliver our products to you with a minimal environmental footprint.
