Deluxe Round Natural African Basket - Medium 14"

"Our Deluxe Medium Round Natural African Basket from Africa Heartwood Project is simple and elegant, and contains no dyes or patterns - just the light brown color of the dried grass itself. This is the medium size, measuring about 14-15"" round and 8"" tall, plus the 4"" handle for 12"" approximate total height. They're each equipped with durable, soft leather handles and the medium 14"" size is suitable for use in light shopping, collecting vegetables, holding hand towels or small books, for medium pot of flowers, or as a stunning home decor accent.

Each deluxe basket in our collection is made from the elephant grass which grows in the rich flood plains of the White Volta near the village of Bolgatanga, Northern Ghana. We love that women artsians, working in family & village co-operatives, hand-weave each basket using traditional techniques handed down from generation to generation. Non-profit Africa Heartwood Project supports the sustainable livelihoods of cultural artisans in developing countries by providing training, investment, and access to global markets.

To save you money this woven basket arrives flat-packed, reducing storage and shipping costs. Reshape by simply spraying or immersing in water, shaking off excess water, hand shaping while wet, then allowing to air dry. 5 minutes of basket love and your done! We include a care and shaping guide to help you keep your basket looking its best. Every basket is hand-made & unique, but trust that YOUR basket will closely match the written description & representative photos in this listing."
