Made from smelted aluminum cans + other scrap, these ornaments have been hand-cast by Artisans in Madagascar using traditional sand mold casting methods. These ornaments are zero-waste, recycled and look luminous on any tree. Small imperfections from the hand casting of each aluminum piece lends to the unique beauty of these ornaments.

Fervent Folk sources the aluminum shapes for our smelted ornament collection from AluMada, the 'Fonderie de l'Ocean Indien', based in the capital of the island country of Madagascar. Stephanie, the owner of AluMada, ensures a healthy and fair-paid work environment for the skilled Artisans who create the shapes, each cast individually. Stephanie and I have known each other personally for many years and I am especially happy to partner with her in providing jobs for the Malagasy Artisans in her employ.
