These baskets are of a similar style to those woven in nearby Zimbabwe, but with a more rustic touch.

I’ve been buying these baskets for years now and have a large, wonderful collection. These baskets and canisters are truly magnificent and of more and more excellent, colorful and sophisticated design. They add immensely to any home, whether on the floor, a table, a shelf or on the wall. Having been to these regions In Africa, I can attest to the superb quality of Baskets of Africa. And to the importance of the undertaking this company is doing. Kudos. Nora
Thank You Very Much! You have got to be one of the best companies around in being so attentive to details and responsive to customers. You are prompt. I received my UPS tracking and my baskets will be here Monday. I am loving this!!! Juli
