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.

Received my basket this week and love it! California now charges for plastic bags, so I use my basket to avoid the fees. I've already gotten many compliments. Thank you! Kristin
It is my dream to help crafts women in Africa through the use of commerce of their goods. I love the hand work and it touches a part of me. I admire what you are doing. Vanessa
