Hand-woven in Zambia from natural grasses, including dried palm leaves between and interlocking structure of twigs.
The tradition of handcrafting baskets has been a part of the Zambian culture for centuries and is passed down from generation to generation. Natural fiber basket making is a labor-intensive and highly skilled craft.
They are most often used by the locals for functional purposes such as to winnow grain or for serving and storage. They make for a stunning piece of art, as a wall hanging or table accent.
