Women's Work is a fair trade store that sells crafts to enable women to live their desired, chosen way of life. The pottery is made as income generation for the local artists who live in Zimbabwe.
Judaica items include ceramic mezzuzot, kiddish sets, candle sticks, and wine bottles. The ceramics are dishwasher safe, although not microwaveable, and use glazes that meet United States standards for food safety.
Women's Work is a member of the Fair Trade Federation, and the owner, Cecilia Dinio Durkin, is a proud board member.
| Products can be purchased by email or phone, or at their store in New York. |
