Fairtrade and handmade using environmentally-friendly recycled materials, this platter is crafted by a local women’s group in Hebron, Palestine that strive to alleviate local poverty and unemployment, whilst sustaining Palestinian handicraft workmanship traditions. A beautiful addition to your kitchen that is a keeper.
Traditionally gifted to newly weds, buy it for yourself or gift it. It would make a great gift idea as housewarming, newlywed, Christmas, birthday, for history fans, folklore item collectors, chef, cooks and friends and family alike.

she said, "now I cannot live without it”. Scroll down to see her in action.
