About Tintsaba
Tintsaba brings you beautiful jewellery & homewares made by beautiful people. Based in the Northern Hhohho region of Swaziland, Tintsaba employs local women for a fair wage & trains them to become master weavers, silversmiths & managers. Each Tintsaba basket, earring, or ring is delicately handcrafted by one of these women.
Aspiring to be sustainable across all aspects of operation, Tintsaba adhere to Fair Trade practices & make their baskets & jewelry disks from sisal, a hardy & invasive plant species. The sisal is then stripped, cleaned, spun & dyed with GOTs certified organic dye to create stunning homewares & jewellery.
