Global Crafts Recycled Handmade Old-Fashioned Wire Bicycle Ornament
Description
This handmade wire bicycle ornament with a raffia loop brings a touch of nostalgia to the holiday season! Crafted from recycled materials, including wire and tin, making each piece unique. Handmade by artisans in Kenya using Recycled Wire. Accent colors may vary based on recycled materials used. Each ornament measures approximately 4.5" in length by 4"" high. Size may vary based on the handmade nature of each ornament. The Story Behind the Art: Creative Alternatives works with marginalized producers in rural and urban areas of Kenya. The producers take pride in the product ideas they are able to develop and market through Creative Alternatives. The producers are self employed men and women, largely young and middle aged, who have failed to get formal employment. They have thus had to seek employment in the jua kali (which translates into hot sun in the Swahili language) sector. They work in groups, small family owned businesses or as individuals."
