Jacaranda trees add to the beauty of Rwanda, with their feathery leaves and small purple flowers. They are also special in that they grow back after being cut.
Artisans use Jacaranda branches to carve these charming little birds, which are similar in size to our Rwandan fire finches.
Choose a white or unfinished natural bird ornament, or create a set of three or five birds! They look beautiful clustered against the dark evergreen of a Christmas tree.
Please note that the shape of the bird ornaments vary slightly due to the styles of the individual woodcarvers.
Hand-carved from branches of the Jacaranda tree.
Available in matte white or a natural unfinished wood.
Length: Approximately 4.3 inches
Care: If your white bird gets scuffed, a white eraser should do the trick!
Our stance on ethically made comes down to the simplest goal: empower people and stand for what’s right. Any products made outside the US are fair-trade certified and any products made in the global north are made by independent artists and small non profits.
Sustainability
We pride ourselves on our commitment to sustainable business practices, whether that’s our Kraft recycled bags or the sustainable practices our vendors follow. We’re doing our best to be good for Mother Earth.
Inclusive Community
Inclusivity is at the core of what we do, whether it’s size, gender, sexual orientation, or race, we are welcoming with open arms. Our store is a safe space for all.
Empowering Women
Women are overlooked in countries in the global south, meaning they are the first to end up in poverty, unless they have a son to take care of them. But giving handouts isn’t what we do, we purchase our goods from women who’ve been empowered to make their own money!
