Seconds Sale

I know, you have heard the words before. Winter Sale. Every store seems to be having a Winter sale to clear off their shelves of the old to make room for the new. But EllieBeans has never had a sale before and rarely will you ever see Penzo at reduced prices. For the month of February we will have many of our most popular items at 20% off. Teapots, servings trays, canisters and mini rice bowls all discounted! We will also be offering seconds for the first time. These pieces have slight imperfections which is great news for you. We have several shelves of seconds all at a 30% discount. These items are also available for on-line orders. Please email customerservice@elliebeans.com for a complete list of sale items and seconds.

Hurry in, these products won't last long.

Keep Warm,

EllieBeans Thanks You!

Thank you to the many EllieBeans customers who have expressed concern regarding the present situation facing local Zimbabweans. As if the hyper rate of inflation and the suppressive government weren't enough, now Zimbabweans are being inflicted with a completely preventable disease. Cholera can easily be eradicated with a fresh supply of drinking water. It is that simple! Yet Robert Mugabe has denied there is a need for UN assistance and claims the health of his nation is just fine. It is a tragic situation which will get worse before it gets better.

Fortunately the Penzo studio/factory has provided all the necessary supplies in order to keep the workers and their families healthy. There is a water well on the property and weekly trips are made cross border for other provisions. Penzo is able to craft and supply their beautiful pottery even in these difficult times. EllieBeans is proud to be helping theses artists and designers by providing an economic outlet for their beautiful, one of a kind masterpieces. We currently have a large stock of Penzo available. Many items with brillant glazes in new shapes and sizes for the 2009 product year.

Stop in or visit our on line catalog to see our vast collection of Penzo as well many other Fair Trade items from across the African continent.
