ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This handwoven plateau basket brings the artisan traditions of Rwanda into your home with its distinctive geometric design. Each piece is carefully crafted from locally sourced sisal strands wrapped around bunches of sweetgrass, then hand-dyed in rich, natural colors that celebrate the beauty of traditional craftsmanship.
Measuring 12 inches wide and 3 inches high, this versatile piece transitions seamlessly from functional fruit basket to wall art with its included hanging loop. The flat, plateau shape makes it perfect for displaying seasonal produce, creating gallery wall arrangements, or adding textural interest to any room as a standalone accent piece.
Because each basket is shaped by human hands using time-honored techniques, every piece carries subtle variations in size and color that speak to its authentic, handmade origins. This is slow living at its finest, where function meets artistry in everyday objects that tell a story.
