The Bosnian carving tradition is included in UNESCO's World Intangible Cultural Heritage List ? which draws attention to unique cultural skills in need of preservation.
"Bosnia and Herzegovina has some of the most talented woodworkers in the world," said Wingårdhs.
"In order to develop the traditions, Zanat has engaged outside designers and together they have grown the shop to become a significant part of the Bosnian economy."
