A Set of 5 African wall Rwanda Baskets, Handwoven bowl

Description

Sizes Range;  12", 10", 8".
These unique wall mats are made out of sisal grass which is grown on farms belonging to the basket weavers. The leaves of the sisal plant are used to obtain a fibre which is rolled to twine, and then be woven to a basket.

The weaver’s dye the fibres and then roll the twine on their lap. Making baskets is a very labour intensive art. The baskets come in a number of different colours and patterns, with each design entirely made up by these artistic ladies!
