Her light shines on through history. This Harriet Tubman Ornament celebrates an American hero who made it her mission to relieve those in bondage. This lofty ideal is the true spirit of holiday celebrations, and Harriet Tubman deserves to be at the center of yours. 6.5"
Each ornament is made using the traditional method of zardozi embroidery. Zari (meaning gold) embroidery. It is a highly skilled and rare embroidery technique that traditionally uses gold wires and jewels. Zardozi work is a rare and respected craft, with skills passed down from generation to generation.
These ornaments are handmade by women in rural Thailand who have found work they can do at home (vs. in a factory) through a local charity that our vendor has collaborated with for over many years. Over 200 skilled women work at home hand sewing the decorations and many women have been doing so for more than ten years.
