Weaving Baskets in Rwanda
In Rwanda, “the land of a thousand hills”, weavers from many tribes, including the recently warring Hutus and Tutsis, create sisal bowl baskets as symbols of peace, reconciliation, self- reliance and hope.
Rural weavers in Rwanda of all tribes, including Hutus and Tutsis, work side by side to produce these unique baskets.

Just writing to let you know how much we love the basket. The workmanship is exquisite! And it looks exactly as in the photo. Love it! Nancy
Lovely baskets, very sturdy and well done. Glad it contributes to the well-being of the makers. This is my third Ghana basket...they are wonderful and colorful and most hardy. Barbara
All of our African baskets are verified Fair Trade, because we believe that indigenous people around the world should be compensated fairly for their amazing work.
