Elevate your dining experience with this exquisite Anemone Trivet from the Cultivate Collection. This handcrafted piece not only protects your furniture but also showcases your culinary creations in style. Woven in the vibrant hues of Fall 2024, it adds a seasonal touch to any table setting.
Crafted by skilled women artisans from the Batoro tribe in the remote mountains of Western Uganda, this trivet is a testament to their artistry and resilience. These artisans are part of a cooperative that empowers single mothers, widows, and marginalized women, providing them with training and a source of income through basket weaving.
Made from all-natural, sustainably sourced raffia and banana fibers, this trivet is as eco-friendly as it is beautiful. The unique blend of natural and AZO-free dyes, derived from plant materials grown in the artisans' villages, results in bold, vibrant colors. The intricate designs are achieved by twisting and wrapping hand-dyed raffia around coils of banana fibers.
Each trivet is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, with slight variations in size and color due to its handmade nature. Measuring approximately 8" x 0.25", this trivet is not just a functional item but a special, unique addition to your home decor. Handmade in Uganda, it embodies the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship of its makers.
