The Luwo Gatherer's Tray is a tribute to the philosophy of slow living. Using locally sourced, sun-dried elephant grass, artisans create a piece that feels both delicate and incredibly resilient. The warm, natural cream tones of the grass are elevated by copper-wrapped reeds, creating a rhythmic pattern that feels rooted in the earth yet distinctly modern.

Crafted entirely by hand by women artisans in Zambia’s Western Province, each tray tells a story of heritage, patience, and skill. Slight variations in weave and tone are marks of authenticity, ensuring that no two pieces are ever the same.

Whether used daily or styled as décor, the Luwo tray brings a sense of calm, purpose, and connection into your home.
