Weaving these baskets from the top down, rather than from the bottom up, and using forms such as tuna cans to create shapes makes them even more unusual.

Since wire baskets are woven by many men due to the difficult nature of weaving wire, they are able to stay home on their tribal lands instead of moving to cities to look for work. In the rural groups we work with, the family units are preserved so that the weavers and their families can live more traditional lifestyles.
Looking forward to these beautiful weavings. I've bought pretty bowls and plates from you before, and they are all lovely. Melanie
I just wanted to write to tell you how much I enjoy your website. I am a disabled person spending a lot of time just sitting in my wheelchair. I find that it makes me feel better to just sit and stare at the beautiful baskets that you have. I am a college professor, and I have traveled extensively. However I have not seen these beautiful baskets before in my travels. Congratulations on the good work that you are doing. Nancy
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.
