The story

Each basket tells a story. The stories of the Ugandan women who have intricately handcrafted these baskets from raffia, a fiber obtained from the leaves of the raffia palm.

The intricate designs and flawless work of an experienced weaver is never the result of luck. Rather, Ugandan women owe their skills to the women before them who passed on the knowledge from generation to generation—mother to daughter, grandmother to child.

Each piece is unique, culturally and traditionally inspired, and handwoven in intimate Ugandan communities. With differing patterns and colors, one or more of these baskets will make a globally conscious and stylistic addition to your home.

Our baskets can be used as a produce bowl, centerpiece, or even a place to display books on your coffee table. Meaningfully and purposefully designed, each basket has a woven loop that allows you to hang it up on the wall as a decorative piece.
