I just want to let you know that my baskets arrived about an hour ago. I was so excited. I opened both boxes and I am so pleased and happy. They are just what I hoped they would be...large and beautifully made and very colorful. I could not be more pleased. I have told many people about your website and these wonderful baskets. -- Cathy My daughter-in-law is from Kenya and was happy to receive this as a gift. The bowl is beautiful in the sun and the fair trade makes me feel good about the purchase too. Carol

Uganda Bukedo & Raffia Bowls
Weavers construct these baskets by wrapping colorfully dyed palm raffia around a coil of bukedo, the local term in Uganda for banana leaf stalks. The large banana leaf stalks are pulled apart into long, thin strips, then dried, and then bundled into coils and wrapped with raffia.
