Baobab Collection aims to help Madagascan Mikea tribe with its new candle collection

The luxury candle brand will be donating sales to the people and worked with them to produce the candle

Baobab Collection has launched a spring/summer collection inspired by the Madagascan Mikea tribe.

A percentage of the sales of the premium Mikea candles (£89-£540) will be donated to the tribespeople whose land is being exploited for rosewood.

The brand collaborated with women of a Malagsy co-op to create the collection, which is made entirely of crocheted raffia.

Photojournalist and fashion photographer Serge Anton worked with the brand on its marketing images of the Mikea tribe.

Launch: March
