Love is in the air, and why not share something totally unique with your loved one for Valentine’s Day this year?  Mbare has so many beautiful handmade gifts, you are sure to find something meaningful that will delight the object of your affection!

For over 15 years Mbare has been exhibiting at the NYIGF (New York International Gift Fair), held twice annually in New York City.  The show draws 35,000 attendees from all 50 states and 85 countries, and hosts 2,800 exhibiting companies showcasing the very best lines across the home, lifestyle and gift spectrum.

This year we will be featuring our new line of items from Tintsaba, which include sisal lidded baskets and sisal jewelry.  We’re very excited that the founder of the company, Sheila Freemantle, will be present at our booth this year to personally answer questions about the brand new 2012 products!

Mbare is pleased to announce our new relationship with Tintsaba!  The remarkable women of Tintsaba create beautiful handmade products centered on the use of sisal, a sustainable natural weed that grows wild in Swaziland.  We are now offering some of their lidded sisal baskets, and will soon be carrying a selection of their handmade jewelry.
