This beautiful set of three completes your holiday decorating with each ornament handcrafted by Afghan refugee artisans living in Pakistan and Malaysia. These ornaments represent hope and resiliency and are a symbol of solidarity with the refugee community.
The Splendid Peacock: Crafted by Afghan refugees living in Pakistan. This vibrantly embroidered design is an homage to one of nature’s most splendid creatures. The peacock, often associated with strength and divinity, lives in the wild in Pakistan. Made in partnership with Artisan Links.
The Bold Ram: Crafted by Afghan refugees living in Malaysia. This little ram is inspired by the Urial, a wild sheep that is native to the artisan’s homeland. The ram is known to be a bold and resilient creature, ready to take on life’s challenges. Made in partnership with Earth Heir.
The Dozi Bird: Crafted by Afghan refugees living in Pakistan. This playful bird is decorated with a strong embroidery style, suzani nouratta. The festive design is a reminder to stay attentive to small joys of life, like a cheerful birdsong. Made in partnership with Pomegranate Seeds.
