Himba PVC Bangle
Himba PVC Bangle
Made in Namibia by upcycling PVC Pipe! Using shoe polish to color, each piece is hand carved and shaped to make a unique, durable bangle bracelet. Various sizes, pliable, with an opening on one side for easy on and off.
A leather look without the animal, these are a great option for vegans. Doing great things by being animal friendly and reducing waste in a developing country.
A great gift for the fellas, too.
Produced by Omba Arts Trust, a non profit organization that promotes artisan craft as supplemental income in the home for many Namibian women.
From Omba: "Our artisans and artists live in rural and often very remote settlements. It is helpful for them to earn money while working from home with part-time craft production that ties in with their household responsibilities and seasonal tasks: subsistence agriculture, small-stock farming, fishing, and piecework on communal or commercial farms."
