These handcrafted salad tongs are made out of horn and mahogany. The handle part has a striped horn pattern on the front and back, while both sides have a mahogany piece from top to bottom. This would make a great gift, especially a hostess gift. 

Care instructions: handwash with warm water and mild dishwashing soap. Please do not put in the dishwasher or soak in water. I find if I am not using it often or if it begins to look dull, just put a bit of olive oil on a paper towel and rub it into the wood. It loves oil, will soak it up, and look beautiful again!

Dimensions: 12.5 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.
