    Story Behind the Art
    These students are orphans who have been left destitute and live in an area of Northern Zululand where the AIDS epidemic is very high. The purchase of this item assists the students to feed, clothe and educate themselves and give them a sense of pride and self-worth. Ilala Weavers is situated at Hluhluwe within the province of KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. The organization was established some 30 years ago with a clear vision and objective of revitalizing and enhancing the age-old Zulu tradition of handcrafts which at the time were in danger of being lost forever. Today Ilala Weavers help over 2,000 Zulu people to attain self sufficiency by working from their homes and retain their lifestyle and rich heritage, which has been passed down through the generations by Zulu crafters whose modern counterparts today produce stunning works of art sought after the world over.

    • They'll make you smile.

      I have several pieces of "cooldrink" (soda) can art from South Africa. These angels may be my favorite - they're unusual and imaginative. The angels are sold in a pack of three, but each has a small note card attached that tells the story of the Peace Angels, the project in South Africa and the young men who made them. The six I purchased are all different and are now standing on a mantelpiece - where they are much admired. A single angel would be a lovely token gift. I am ordering several more sets for this purpose.

    • Tin cans have found a new life!

      I am a recycling fanatic and bought these ornaments for myself and as a gift. The tin is easily bent as expected but was packed in a way that they were not damaged during their travels. They are each made out of a different type of soda can and are super cute! I recommend these not only as a gift but also to support the project "angels against crime". The repurposed tin can idea is also stellar!

      • Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Various Colors but yes.
      • Please tell us about the quality of the product. Great quality

    • Great Xmas gifts!

      I bought a set for a Xmas grab bag, I think it sets the tone for Xmas too, because some of the money goes for good causes,so it's like giving twice! It's a feel good present. So cute on a fireplace mantel or a side table.

      • Did the color match the color displayed onsite? they are all different,which makes them with their own personality.
      • Please tell us about the quality of the product. they are recycled soda cans.
