Naturally Sustainable Materials

We exclusively use responsibly harvested local materials like raffia, elephant grass and sisal when weaving our wall statement pieces, and every color you see is drawn from organic natural dyes. This eco-protective process brings organic living at home, and peace of mind at heart.

Early on in their careers, our weavers learn how to grow and harvest their own materials. That way, once they advance their weaving skills and save up enough money, they can employ people in their communities to help harvest the fibers on their behalf as they weave. It is part of our business model to teach our artisans to experience accountability in the supply chain because it empowers them to be independent. 

Weaving

Artisans work in collective groups, or weave at home, where they can stay with their children.

The finished basket is breathtaking.

The completed basket... is a labor of love, a testament to skill and a piece of art.

Kazi means work (in Swahili).
