This set of handcrafted baskets features three of this collection’s best selling styles, the iconic Peace Corps hamper, open top bin, and small round storage basket, in contrasting black and white. Each basket is carefully handmade by a talented Wolof woman in rural Senegal. Wolof women in the West African nation of Senegal update traditional coil weaving methods by enlivening natural grass baskets with colorful strips of plastic salvaged from a mat factory. Cattails grow abundantly in rural Senegal, so women can earn a sustainable income from basket weaving while enriching homes around the world with modern African craftsmanship.
Because this is a handcrafted item, each may vary slightly.
*By law, containers shipped from Africa are fumigated. Other than the fumigation process, the fibers are not treated with any other chemicals.
