Artisans & Adventurers Paisley Long Knitted Scarf
Picturing crocodiles and birds on a pointed lidded pot, by expert weaver Topista. Bee first met Topista on her recent trip to Uganda, she was touched by her story and talent for weaving. We designed this basket together with Topista to help her pay for her HIV medication. You can read more about Topista in our latest journal post here. Sourced on co-founder Bee's most recent trip to Uganda, our Uganda Craft Collection basket dishes and pots are all hand woven using traditional natural dyes, sisal and raffia straw. They are amazingly strong and durable. No two are woven the same, so only one of each is available. The perfect unique and special gift or individual art piece. Materials: Sisal, Raffia Straw, Natural Dye
United by their love for design, sustainability and adventure, friends Bee Friedmann and Amy Fleuriot-Reade founded Artisans & Adventurers in 2011. With one store on London’s Columbia Road and another in the creative seaside town of Margate, the brand works directly with small-scale artisanal and craft groups in India and Africa, using their traditional techniques to create a range of homeware and jewellery pieces that celebrate style, colour and print. From sustainable olive-wood tableware and hand-dyed fabric throws, to charming baskets and hand-painted pottery, Artisans & Adventurers’ pieces weave wanderlust into any interior.
