Festive and good for the environment (but maybe a bit scratchy on bare legs)  the inspiration behind ‘Inkuku’ by London-based, South African designer Ryan Frank is a colourful South African chicken ornament.  Named after the Zulu word for chicken, Frank combines his interest in traditional craft techniques and ‘free range’ recycled materials—even the base is recycled aluminium.  Playful and easy on the environment, its a topical trend to make us rethink our relationship with plastic bags.
