Medium - 4.5" x 4.5" x 13"

These cylindrical wooden vessels are carved with great skill by the pastoral Tutsi people who used these vessels to collect milk, honey and carry food. Over the years, as the vessels require repairs, the Tutsi artisans use metal pieces to restore their functionality as they pass them down from generation to generation. The intricate metal patching results in preserving a unique and functional piece of art adding to its intrinsic value.

Please note that many of our handmade items are one of a kind, perfectly imperfect, vintage and have indigenous decorative repair work which we believe adds to the intrinsic value and beauty of the items. No two items are exactly the same.
