Soapstone Hippo Key Ring Hand-Carved • Bold • Fair Trade Hand-carved from natural soapstone sourced in the Kisii region of western Kenya, each elephant key ring exhibits unique color and texture variations inherent to this soft and workable stone. Artisan Impact: These key rings are produced by a dedicated artisan collective in Kisii — part of a community-based self-help group that works to uplift local carvers through sustainable employment, fair payment for their work, and access to broader markets. For example, groups in Kisii have focused on enabling carvers to move beyond exploitative middle-men and benefit more directly from global demand. Supporting education, dignity, and community upliftment with every purchase. Fairly traded. Sustainably made. Handmade with love.
