This exquisite handmade silk ornament represents one of Madagascar’s endangered lemur species, the Mongoose Lemur.  Mongoose lemurs are found in the dry, deciduous forest of northwestern Madagascar, where they live in their family groups.  Not only will this endearing ornament win your heart, its purchase helps support our conservation efforts which directly help protect the lemur’s native habitat.   

This ornament is a perfect holiday decoration, but can also be used as a ready-to-hang precious piece of wall art.   It comes in a lovely kraft box for easy gifting, and includes a tag telling the story of the silk.
