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.
The inside of the coils consists of native grasses. Sisal fiber is then finely stitched on the outside of the coil.

Props to you for your lovely calligraphy gift messages. One of my gift recipients commented that it was so well done, she was amazed! Thank you for the extra effort. I love your products, especially the Ghanaian baskets, and have gifted several. Deb
