DESCRIPTION: To create these boxes, artisans begin with dried leaves from their banana trees. They remove the surface of the leaf, divide it into strips, then weave the chevron design. The black color leaf is from a special kind of banana tree. The box’s lining is removable and sewn on a pedal-powered sewing machine. PRODUCT DETAILS: Stacking trays measure approximately: 12” x 12” x 12” IMPACT: Handmade with love in Rwanda ♥ The Sela Banana Leaf Storage Boxes are made by artisans with Azizi Life, an organization that participates in local initiatives for the development of Rwandan communities working towards physical and spiritual wholeness for all. Azizi believes that God cares deeply about each person's physical well-being and relationships with one another, as well as relationships with Him. Azizi sees the brokenness of the world- both in ""the West"" as well as in their home country of Rwanda - and believes that it is only through a relationship with Jesus Christ that true healing, wholeness – and development – can be found. Your purchase strengthens communities!
