Enhance your dining experience with this exquisite handcrafted trivet, a perfect blend of functionality and artistry. Designed to protect your furniture while showcasing your culinary creations, this piece is handwoven in the vibrant hues of the Fall 2024 Cultivate Collection.
Crafted by skilled women artisans from the Batoro tribe in the remote mountains of Western Uganda, this trivet is more than just a table accessory. 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 a testament to eco-friendly craftsmanship. The unique combination of natural and AZO-free dyes, derived from plant materials grown in the artisans' villages, adds a bold touch to each piece. 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 creation, with slight variations in size and color, making it a special addition to any home. Handmade in Uganda, this trivet measures approximately 8" x 0.25", ensuring it fits seamlessly into your tabletop decor.
