ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
The Sunrise Plateau brings the artistry of Rwandan sky and earth directly to your home. This handwoven wall basket captures the warmth of sunrise through natural sisal strands wrapped around sweetgrass bunches, creating depth and texture in shades of black, tan, and cream.
Each piece emerges from the skilled hands of women artisans who use locally sourced fibers and traditional techniques passed down through generations. The natural materials and hand-dyeing process ensure every basket carries its own unique character and story.
Versatile by design, this piece transforms any space as wall art in a gallery cluster, a functional fruit basket on your counter, or an accent piece in your favorite corner. The crafted loop on the back makes hanging effortless while the 12-inch width creates perfect presence without overwhelming your space.
