About Small craft ornament from Malawi

This is exactly the sort of thing I like bringing back from Malawi: small enough to fit in a bag, but specific enough to remind you where you bought it. The trick is to choose the simple, well-made version. Small craft items look better on a shelf when they are not too shiny or mass-produced. I would look for it in a proper local supermarket, covered market, deli, pharmacy, gift shop or small producer rather than leaving it until the departure gate. Back in the UK, it is worth checking specialist shops first because they often stock a better version than a broad marketplace listing. It is also the kind of thing you can talk about when someone asks what you brought back, because there is usually a little story attached to where you found it.
