The tradition of handcrafting baskets has been a part of the Zambian culture for centuries and is passed down from generation to generation. These hand-dyed and crafted baskets are woven from dried palm leaves woven between and interlocking structure of twigs.
Natural fibre basket making is a labor intensive and a highly skilled craft and these natural and eco-positive trays are multi-functional for either storage or serving. Traditionally these baskets were used to keep foodstuff or for winnowing purposes. You can use these baskets just for decoration, or as a decorative way to store and display food,toys, magazines -- just about anything.
Handmade in Zambia and fair trade imported.
