Simple Batik Olive Wood Fork, Assorted Stripes

Handmade by artisans in Kenya using traditional methods passed down through the generations, these olive wood and batik handle serving utensils are a beautiful accessory to your appetizer trays or bar area. Product Features: Hand carved and hand-painted. No two are identical. Naturally water and stain resistant. Hand wash and air dry. Made from wood and ethically sourced animal bones that would have otherwise been discarded. Each piece is approximately 6 to 7-inches long. Story Behind the Art: The bone is "batiked" which is an age old art process used in Africa. The patterns are applied by placing wax on the white bone and dipping the bone into a dark brown/black dye, resulting in the beautiful African mud cloth designs.
