Description
This basket has been hand woven by highly skilled artisans in Senegal. The core fibers are made with a native type of fan palm, known locally as the palmier rognier. This intricate work starts by weaving the strands together, then wrapping them from the center to form the shape. This is a functional piece of art, which is safe to use with food. It can be the center of attention on your table, hold fresh fruit, decorate a wall or shelf, or store your jewelry. The diameter is 8-9". Every purchase provides a livelihood to women in Senegal & encourages the development of their skills & designs. Great for anyone who appreciates design & wants to support ethically made crafts. Handcrafted - small variations in dimensions may occur. African Woven Basket, Senegal Bowl, Natural Palm Fiber, Dining Centerpiece, Fruit & Bread Basket
