Pressure And Responsibility

About Our philosophy
We pledge to provide true transparency about the ethically made goods we offer, so you can shop freely, knowing each piece has been responsibly sourced, and expertly crafted with sustainable materials. From artisan-crafted home decor to earth-friendly furniture and ethical fashion, we’ve made it easy to shop responsibly, knowing each purchase makes a positive impact for both people and the planet.

ARQA partners with over 150+ small businesses, artisan cooperatives and makers in the U.S. and around the world. Our mission is to make conscious and responsible consumerism easily accessible by providing a beautifully curated online store for thousands of exceptionally designed, sustainably sourced, and ethically made goods for the modern wardrobe and home.

We're a woman-owned, family-run small business. Cayley Pater and Andy Ives thought shopping for ethical and sustainable home decor and clothing should be simple. So in 2018, they created ARQA and brought the best ethically made and sustainably sourced goods to one place. On ARQA , you can shop with confidence knowing every product we carry is rigorously assessed and verified for both sustainability and equity and adheres to at least two of ARQA 's eight core values.

ARQA Magazine is our editorial magazine where we showcase the latest trends in ethical fashion, provide analysis and insight into the conscious living movement, feature the latest techniques, innovations, and design in the ethical fashion space, and provide deep dives into the process and people behind the products we fill our lives with.
