Handmade woven table coaster from Rwanda. Crafted by masterful artisans in Rwanda, the hardwearing woven material will protect your table surface from marks and spillage.

Designed by ourselves and woven by the 'Love with Actions' charity in Rwanda, these coasters provide financial independence for families struggling with disabilities throughout Africa. 

The weavers we work with are all part of a community-based cooperative in Southern Rwanda, working to socially improve their livelihoods and to keep the art of weaving alive. Through the sharing of skills, artisans are trained in art and crafts, public health, basic sales, and communication techniques to meet the demands of the markets today.

Materials: Sisal grass, Poly-cotton Thread.

Sizing: 10cm

Rwandan coasters are famously robust and versatile. 

To clean your Rwandan coaster, simply wipe clean with a damp cloth or sponge, remove most of the moisture with a dry towel and leave to air dry naturally.

Avoid placing your Rwandan coaster in direct sunlight as this may cause some of the colours to fade.
