Carvers in Kenya's western highlands craft the basic form for simple rectangular storage box from soft soapstone. Artisans in a Nairobi workshop then add a chic black dyed finish and etched details inspired by the intricate high-contrast designs of Malian mudcloth. 

Because this is a handcrafted item, each will vary slightly.

2 Designs available:

Spindle Lines

Segou Squares

Dimensions:  

4"L x 2.75"W x 1.25"H

Crafted from: Soapstone, non-toxic dye


Made in Kenya
