African Emerald Telephone Wire Platter Medium

Decorative use of wire in South Africa dates back hundreds of years, and its modern equivalent takes the form of brightly colored plastic-coated copper, more commonly known as telephone wire. Bridge for Africa is a Fair Trade Federation member dedicated to promoting self-sufficiency and dignity of work in rural African communities, while promoting sustainable economic development in the area. Combining traditional weaving skills with contemporary designs, these vibrant baskets are crafted by hand and tell the story of the Zulu people. Bridge for Africa has supported the work of over 650 families since 2004.
