Recycled Tin Baby Gecko
Approx: 10cm in length
Available in: Yellow, Green, Gold, Black, Red and Blue
This amazing gecko has been made by artisans in South Africa.
The item is just one of a range which has been made in the South African tradition of making crafts from recycled materials, such as discarded wire and tin cans gathered from taxi stands and bus stations, incorporating beads in their designs.
As the demand has grown for such items, apprentices have been trained in the art of weaving tin, paying them a fair price for the products that they produce. The training and production provides a sustainable income for a growing number of young people in Cape Town.
