HILIKI – Variations Green

Hiliki Jars – Inspired by Nature
Hiliki means cardamom in Swahili. When the flower ripens, it bursts open to reveal the seeds. That same elegant shape is hand-carved into the wooden lids of these jars.

Designed with Purpose
Each set features upcycled glass jars with carved wooden tops and airtight, food-grade silicone seals. Choose transparent or green glass: one medium (8 cm) and two large (10 cm), all presented in a CHAKO gift box.

Made in Zanzibar
We transform discarded wine bottles into something new – more than two million every year. Skilled artisans shape and finish every piece with care.
