Handmade in Madagascar
The Shebobo team consists of over 400 artisans that work in collectives around the countryside of Madagascar. Our products are made from all natural fibers including raffia, rush, sisal, & banana palm. These fibers are renewable, sustainable, & biodegradable.
Each piece is hand dyed & hand loomed using the same traditional weaving techniques learned over 100 years ago. The natural fibers are split into thread-like balls of yarn, then woven, macraméd, and crocheted to create beautiful hats, bags, and more.
With over 80% of the population of Madagascar living below the poverty level, it is imperative to support artisans with fair trade & wage policies to sustain families, communities, & artisan traditions.
We are very proud to work with & support our community of artists.
