Warp Speed Trivet ~ Cultivate Collection
Elevate your dining experience with this exquisite Warp Speed 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 more than just a functional item. It represents a cooperative effort that empowers single mothers, widows, and marginalized women, providing them with essential training and additional income. Each trivet is made from all-natural, sustainably sourced raffia and banana fibers, ensuring an eco-friendly choice for your home.
The artisans use a unique blend of natural and AZO-free dyes, derived from plant materials grown in their villages. This intricate process requires a high level of skill and knowledge, resulting in bold and beautiful designs. The hand-dyed raffia is meticulously twisted and wrapped around banana fiber coils, creating a sturdy and visually stunning piece.
No two trivets are alike, with slight variations in size and color due to their handmade nature, making each one a special and unique addition to your home. Handmade in Uganda, this trivet measures approximately 8" x 0.25", offering both functionality and a touch of cultural artistry.
