Description

You will receive the exact set of miniature baskets pictured above.
How will you display your mini peace baskets? As ornaments on a houseplant? On a shelf? In a display case?
The shape of the basket and the bold zig-zag design are very traditional and distinct to Rwanda.
Rural weavers in Rwanda of all tribes, including Hutus and Tutsis, work side by side to produce these uniquely woven baskets.
The baskets are a message of reconciliation, peace, and hope for the future.
In Rwanda, basket weaving is passed down from generation to generation, from grandmother to mother to daughter.
Dimensions are approximate, but we do strive to get the measurements accurate within 1/2 inch. Please review the size of this item carefully using a ruler or tape measure before your purchase. See our Shopping FAQs for more information.
