Pohnpei SpongeGrown in the pristine waters of Pohnpei Island Micronesia, known as the Emerald Isle of the Pacific, this Grade A1 Pohnpei Sponge is the only one of its kind in the world. Pohnpei Island’s crystal clear, coral fringed waters support a small community of farmers who farm these unique sponges by hand. The Sponge in this box has been hand-grown for two to three years before being carefully harvested, and cleansed without the use of harsh chemicals or dyes.
A luxurious bathing accessory which is excellent at cleaning and massaging even the most sensitive of skins, the Pohnpei Sponge leaves skin gently cleansed and silky smooth. Especially treasured by the Pohnpei Islanders for bathing the skins of newborn infants, this Sponge will last many years of use if well cared for.
This sponge supports a social enterprise:
Each Pohnpei Sponge sold helps to preserve the pristine ocean waters of Pohnpei, whilst protecting its beautiful natural environment and supporting the traditional culture and lifestyle of its indigenous people.
This sponge comes beautifully packaged in a 100% recycled paper box using 100% soy-based ink.
All oils used by Four Cow Farm are premium extra-virgin cold-pressed quality.
