We had the opportunity to design this trivet with Atelier Calla for our new Home Collection and we are in love. When we designed this we wanted to create what we call Functional Art. You can use this as a trivet but when not in use, you can hang it as art! This trivet is handmade of bone and mahogany. This would also make a great gift!

Dimensions: 7 x 7 inches

Atelier Calla opened their workshop in Haiti in 2011 as a way to show people the love of Christ. Christelle, a banker of 12 years, was determined to give her artisans dignified employment; a safe environment to work in, a steady paycheck, and a meal. They started with 4 artisans and now have grown to 6 full time employees. I love how Christelle has imparted ownership to her artisans, they work together as a team to ensure all orders are fulfilled on time and with utmost quality. But what I love the most is how she is investing in the person and not just the work they can perform. Is it more work? Absolutely, but the results are lasting.

Empowering people. Changing lives.
