Across Southern Africa, the Batonga women of Zambia are well know for their basketry skills and unique designs. They use abundant natural fibers like palm leaves, wild twigs and creeping vines to craft functional pieces of woven art. Rich, earthy pigments are added with natural dyes made from bark and leaves. Each basket takes days to make and honors generations of artistic heritage passed from mother to daughter.
- Small: approximately 10" diameter x 3.5" tall
- Large: approximately 13" diameter x 5.5" tall
- Due to the handmade nature, there may be slight variations in size and design.
- Ethically sourced. Artisans are paid sustainable wages.
