Story

Handwoven in Uganda 

A Collaboration with Rose & Fitzgerald 

Meticulously handwoven from palm and banana leaves, these baskets are the perfect, stash-everything storage solutions. Designed with a simple, geometric pattern and topped with a fitted lid, these beauties instantly transform any cluttered corner.

Handwoven by a cooperative of 150 women, tucked away in the Rwenzori Mountains, each basket takes weeks to complete. Made exclusively in a fair trade environment.

Details

  • MEASUREMENTS:
    Small - 12"W x 8"D
    Large - 17"W x 11"D
    • MATERIALS: Handwoven palm and banana leaves 
  • COLORS: Natural with hand-dyed black accents
  • ORIGIN: Uganda

Since each basket is handwoven, please expect some slight variation in size.

Care

Our baskets are sturdy, strong, and flexible, made to withstand constant use. If properly cared for, your basket will live a long life.

Dust your woven basket on a regular basis, wiping with a damp cloth if necessary. No other cleaning should be necessary.

Changes in temperature and humidity may cause your basket to expand and contract, which may make securing the lid difficult at times. Be patient and wait for the weather to change or remove from areas with high humidity (like bathrooms).

Striking storage piece.

This is a beautiful piece, and the large basket is able to hold a significant quantity. The lid was slightly offsize, significantly larger than the basket, but still totally useable.

Now I want to put everything in baskets.

I grew up with similar baskets that my parents bought in Nirobi and these are just as lovely and well made. I love them.
