ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This handwoven plateau basket brings the artistry of Rwandan craftsmanship into your daily rituals. Each piece is lovingly shaped from locally sourced sisal strands wrapped around sweetgrass, then hand dyed in warm natural tan tones that complement any living space.
The maker creates each 12-inch basket using traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. The gentle curves and thoughtful proportions make it perfect as a fruit basket on your counter, an accent piece in your favorite nook, or part of a gallery wall arrangement with the convenient hanging loop.
Every basket tells a story of empowerment and community, supporting women artisans who transform simple natural fibers into functional works of art. The handmade quality means each piece carries its own unique character, with gentle variations that celebrate the human touch.
