Soapstone Box w Leaf Design - Kenya
This container is solid soapstone and while it is very decorative, it is also very practical. The handle is carved out of the same piece of stone as the rest of the lid - it is not attached as a separate piece.
The colour is the natural stone colour, and will vary slightly from container to container.
Soapstone is amazingly pleasant to touch, and this container is a perfect example of that feature.
The container is 4” x 4” and the container is 2.5” tall (4” tall including the handle)

This Soapstone Container has been created by the artisans of Nyabigena Soapstone Carvers in Kenya. Through sales of their products, nearly 150 soapstone carvers receive crafting and safety workshops, support for social programs for widows and orphans, and community improvement initiatives. They rely on the proceeds of these crafts for funds for basic necessities. These talented artisans do everything by hand, with intricate details achieved from hand-drawn designs, chisels, small picks, and wood tools.
