"Pathway to Nature"
This well made rug is a virtual pathway to the calmness of nature . Its colors are peaceful but lively because of the toucans. I love it.

"So well made!"
I hate my sofa and I was looking for ways to want to sit on it. These pillow covers were the perfect thing. They are very well made, comfortable to use and go with any decor. The picture doesnt show how beautiful they really are.

"Beautiful and unique"
Very happy with this colourful, hand crafted, wall hanging! It was simple to hang and not too heavy, even though it s made from thick wool. The colours are bright and the symbolic images feel like they re telling an ancient story.
