ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This petite handwoven basket brings thoughtful organization to children's rooms with gentle artisan craftsmanship. The small lidded design creates perfect hiding spots for tiny treasures, from hair accessories to small toys, keeping surfaces clear while adding natural texture to any space.
Master weavers craft each basket by hand using traditional sisal weaving techniques passed down through generations. The compact size and secure lid make it ideal for storing delicate items or creating organized zones in playrooms, bedrooms, or nurseries.
More than simple storage, this conscious choice supports artisan communities while bringing the warmth of handmade craftsmanship into daily routines. Each basket carries the story of skilled hands creating beauty from natural materials.

Across Africa, talented craftspeople carry forward artistic skills that, in founder Robbie Stewart's words, are often passed down through generations and represent an invaluable accumulation of knowledge and talent. Mbare calls itself a messenger of culture, committed to sustaining the spirit of Africa by sharing the beauty and integrity of African crafts with the world.
Robbie grew up in Harare, Zimbabwe, and has always appreciated local art found at roadside markets, in urban workshops and in the homes of talented craftspeople. Mbare was born out of his vision of providing lasting sources of income for people and communities outside of the formal economy, and the company says it has worked for environmental and economic justice for more than 27 years.
In the Shona language of Zimbabwe, mbare means a gathering of things, or marketplace. Based in Athens, Georgia, the company has always believed that Africa needs trade, not aid, and describes its pieces as made with heart and rooted in heritage.
