'Hung Up' on Telephone Wire







We adore these vibrant baskets, woven from telephone wire by Zulu artisans in South Africa. The Bridge for Africa company adheres to the principles of the Fair Trade Federation, offering fair wages, equal opportunity, safe working conditions, and an atmosphere of mutual respect. Bright bracelets, whimsical animal sculptures, and critter key chains round out the delightful assortment.

Heap on the Flavor

Handbuilt pottery bowls from Hilborn hold salsas, sauces, dips and spreads. Choose from a round style with spoon or a flat-bottomed pinch pot style with spreader. The matte periwinkle glaze is accented with strokes of shinier shades of blue. What a nice hostess gift!
