Galtang vine is framed with variously sized cross sections of branches from the Philippine coral tree (what the locals call "takip-asin"). Nailed to the vine frame in layers, the wood lends depth and a touch of modern appeal to this natural, heart-shaped wall hanging. 16"h x 17"w.
Since 1976, SERRV International has partnered with handcrafters in the Philippines, providing a long-term trading partnership and interest-free advance payment for our orders. Through sales of their products, artisans who rely on handcrafting as their primary source of family income receive a livelihood, training programs, employment opportunities, administrative development skills, and access to international retail buyers. These talented handcrafters use locally available natural fibers—bamboo, rattan, coconut, and other vines and grasses—to create their beautiful, high-quality products.
