Weaving Makenge Bush Root Baskets in Zambia
In the Western province of Zambia, not far from the border with Angola, the mostly Mbunda speaking people weave these ruggedly unique baskets.
These baskets are of a similar style to those woven in nearby Zimbabwe, but with a more rustic touch.

I just wanted to let you know that I got my baskets yesterday. WOW! That was fast. I wanted to tell you how pleased I am with the baskets and your service. I also really appreciate your website set-up that allows customers to choose the baskets they want versus most others who give you no choice. I've bought two other baskets locally just because I wanted that choice. Now that I've found your site, I'll be back!! Sheila
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
