Sabahar

Spinners, dyers and weavers work hand-in-hand at Sabahar, a fair trade workshop established in Addis Ababa over 20 years ago. Sabahar is dedicated to the preservation of traditional Ethiopian textile making techniques, whilst providing sustainable livelihoods to hundreds of artisans in Addis Ababa, Arba Minch, and Bahar Dahr. Through innovation in techniques, fibres, and technology, Sabahar creates eco-friendly, fair trade textiles that honour traditional Ethiopian craftsmanship whilst meeting contemporary design needs.
