Product Details

What makes Sabahar kitchen and dining products different? Sabahar kitchen and dining pieces are crafted exclusively from natural fibres such as hand-spun cotton and Ethiopian silk. The slow, hand-spinning process gives each napkin, placemat, and runner a distinctive texture and feel that can’t be replicated by machines. Whether used daily or saved for special occasions, these unique pieces are woven to last. How are they made? Each textile is dyed, spun, and woven by hand in Addis Ababa using traditional Ethiopian looms and age-old techniques. Depending on the design, artisans blend hand-spun cotton, Ethiopian silk, or recycled threads. The result: fabrics that last, feel softer with every use, and tell a beautiful story of craftsmanship. *All products are handmade and dyed in small batches, so each piece is unique and may have slight color variations. Who makes them? Sabahar is a fair-trade, women-owned business that has been operating for over 20 years. We provide fair wages, safe working conditions, and long-term employment to over 100 artisans in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Why it matters? Choosing Sabahar means supporting ancient crafts and the people who keep it alive. Our textiles are made from 100% Ethiopian cotton, naturally breathable and biodegradable. Each towel carries the story of the hands that made it and the tradition it helps sustain - a small choice that makes a real difference. Shipping is free on all U.S. orders over $158.00.
