About the Artisans:
This beautiful handcrafted basket was created by a network of rural Wolof women in nine Senegalese villages. Using locally grown millet stalks and strips of plastic used to make prayer mats and rugs, the women are able to earn supplemental income from the comfort of their own homes to help put food on the table and pay educational expenses for their children.
