These unique, lightweight balsa ornaments are created by a cooperative of artisans on Isla Solentiname, Nicaragua. Each ornament is inspired by nature, carefully hand-carved with a machete, and painted with realistic detail.

Artisans at Women of the Cloud Forest have direct, long-term trade relationships. They work with small family workshops and cooperatives across Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Peru. Women of the Cloud Forest provides business training, product development and design as well as micro loans and grants that give artisans the opportunity to build their capacity.
