Small Zig Zag Bread Basket ~ Cultivate Collection
Introducing the Small Zig Zag Bread Basket, a charming addition to your dining experience. This compact version of the larger Bread Basket is designed for both everyday family meals and special gatherings with friends. As part of the Fall 2024 Cultivate Collection, it embodies elegance and functionality.
Expertly handcrafted by women artisans from the Batoro tribe in the remote mountains of Western Uganda, this basket is more than just a decorative piece. These skilled weavers are part of a cooperative that empowers single mothers, widows, and marginalized women, providing them with training and additional income opportunities. Each basket is made from all-natural, sustainably sourced raffia and banana fibers, ensuring an eco-friendly choice for your home.
The basket features a unique and bold mix of natural and AZO-free dyes, crafted from plant materials grown in the artisans' villages. The intricate designs are achieved by twisting and wrapping hand-dyed raffia around coils of banana fibers, showcasing the artisans' expertise. Due to its handmade nature, no two baskets are identical, offering you a truly special and unique piece. Handmade in Uganda, the basket measures approximately 8" x 11" x 3.5", making it a perfect fit for any table setting.
