Banana Leaf Earrings

Description This squiggle design was too quirky to be missed. That and the fact they are made from banana leaves simply wrapped around moulded wire. I just don't think you can go wrong. They are certainly a talking piece! Made in Kenya where your purchase makes a real difference to people's lives. Kenya has places of extreme destitution with a high rate of unplanned pregnancies due to prostitution, forced child labour, unsafe shelters, high death rates, school drop outs and unemployment. Fair Trade provides the dire need of holistic support that is needed to break the cycle of poverty and to provide hope for the future.
