Fundación Artesanías de Chile
This not-for-profit foundation features crafts from artisans all over
Chile. About 2,000 artisans partner with this project including many indigenous Mapuche groups, famous for weaving horsehair into delicate rings, pins and other decorative objects. Home goods like carved wooden bowls are wonderful one-of-a-kind souvenirs that benefit local artisans as well as the recipient of the gift.
