This exquisite hand woven fair trade basket of sisal coil-sewn over bundled sweetgrass makes the perfect gift for friends and family this holiday season.

Origin: Rwanda
Size: Approximately 12" in diameter

About the Project: These fair trade baskets are woven by the women of the Kinigi Weavers Association, in a small village near Volcanoes National Park. Each fair trade basket is hand-crafted from sisal and consists of literally hundreds of stitches. The patterns of these baskets tell ancient stories and now stand as symbols of peace and reconciliation in a country rebuilding itself after the genocide.
