Elevate your home decor with our exquisite collection of handcrafted baskets, perfect for adding a touch of artistry to your walls or as unique centerpieces for your tablescape. These smaller yet impactful pieces are ideal for creating a dramatic wall display or serving as stylish catch-alls on dressers.
Each basket is lovingly handcrafted by skilled women artisans from rural Uganda, part of a cooperative that empowers marginalized communities, including single mothers and widows. This initiative not only provides training but also creates sustainable income opportunities for these talented weavers.
Crafted from all-natural, sustainably sourced raffia and banana fibers, these baskets showcase a commitment to eco-friendly practices.
Each piece features a unique mix of natural and AZO-free synthetic dyes, derived from plant materials grown in the artisans' villages, highlighting their knowledge and skill in dye production.
The intricate designs are achieved by twisting and wrapping hand-dyed raffia around coils of banana fibers, resulting in a strong and beautiful structure.
A convenient hanging loop on the back allows each basket to be displayed as wall decor, adding versatility to your decor options.
Each artisan weaves baskets from home, balancing their craft with other household responsibilities, often dedicating 3 hours a day. This dedication means that baskets can take days to weeks to complete, ensuring each item is truly special.
No two baskets are identical; slight variations in size and color celebrate the handmade nature of each piece, making every basket unique and one-of-a-kind.
