Saba Artisan Foundation

Saba


A small guild of locals produces an eclectic assortment of Saba-specific arts, crafts and souvenirs, including intricate Saba lace as well as hats, T-shirts, bags and hand-screened linens (tablecloths, tea towels and curtains), sewn on-site. Homemade jams and potent liqueurs including Saba Spice rum, guava rum, guavaberry rum and ginger rum (free tastings available) are also on the shelves.
