If you love supporting brilliant indies (just like we do at Muddy), Pangolins is one to bookmark immediately. This Wiltshire-based online store is all about thoughtful gifting – not just for your lucky recipient, but for the people who made those gifts, the planet and the wildlife we share it with.

At Pangolins you’re not just supporting a local business, you’re shopping with a conscience. Every item on the site is ethically sourced, cruelty free and packaged using earth-kind products. From keepsakes to treats, this is gifting that feels good from the inside out. Better still, the edit here is meticulously curated. Think luxe bath oils from Olverum (yes, the royal warrant holder), elegant gold jewellery, artisan candles, stylish homewares, gorgeous gifts for men and adorable picks for kids, including classic Paddington Bears. You’ll also find wellness treats for the person who has everything (Holistic Silk yoga rug, anyone?).

So, what’s behind the name? Pangolins are gentle, shy, mammals living in Asia and Africa. Sadly, they’re also the most trafficked mammals on earth, because their meat is considered a delicacy and their scales are used in forms of traditional medicine. Pangolins aims to change that, highlighting their plight and donating £5 from every Little Pangolin Companion Set to The Pangolin Project, a charity protecting these adorable creatures.

So, next time you’re on the hunt for a gift, check out this brilliant local indie. You’ll be shopping smart, plus you’ll make your present-buying infinitely easier too.
