item information

This adorable mini citroen van has been handmade in Madagascar by Bezalila using recycled tin cans so every one is unique.

Bezalila is based in Madagascar and was founded in 1994 as a co-operative to unite disparate workshops which were working with Malagasy handicrafts. It provides Fair Trade employment to formerly impoverished artisans in crafts including the modelling of recycled tin cans, called Kapoaka. With the profits generated by the workshops, the Kapoaka artisans have built their houses, bought rice fields and established a pig-breeding farm.
