A hand lathe-turned ebony wood vessel from our Sabie range. The body is bell-shaped and fluted, finished with a hand-carved blossom on the lid. A labor of love from start to finish, each one begins as raw ebony hardwood and is expertly turned on a lathe by skilled Mozambican artisans who shape every ridge and detail by hand — a true masterpiece that brings the beauty of African craftsmanship into your home. It is perfect for storing small items such as jewelry and other accessories, and customers love using it as a keepsake urn for ashes. The Sabie range takes its name from the Sabie River in Mozambique. The artisans live and work in Mozambique's vast woodlands, shaping every vessel from Mpingo, the Kiswahili name for African blackwood. Differences in tone and slight imperfections confirm the authenticity of both the material and the craftsmanship. The wood is always sustainably and ethically sourced in accordance with sustainable practices.
