Description
- You will receive the exact basket pictured above.
- Taking a strikingly artistic shape, these pots make for lovely accent pieces on tables or shelves.
- Tonga baskets are made by weaving strips of palm leaf through radials of ‘creepers’ (vines). To create the patterns on the baskets, some of the strips are dyed a dark brown using bark and roots.
- 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.
