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.

I just received my basket and I am so impressed! I’m absolutely overjoyed with the quality and color! The shipping speed was also stellar. I shopped around some other mainstream sellers but I’m so happy to support Baskets of Africa! Brooke
My wife LOVES the two baskets I got her for Christmas... too much... She won't use them. She just wants them for decorations. I wanted to replace old baskets with really pretty ones. oh well. :) Dave
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.
