Xhosa Reed Basket

$190.00

These organic shaped baskets are handwoven by a collective of Xhosa women in the eastern cape of South Africa. Made from river reed native to the area, baskets of this shape and style are traditionally used for collecting grains and other crops. Their free form shape makes each basket unique with sculptural like qualities.

The Xhosa women who weave this collection of beautiful baskets work as part of a community project - providing them with employment and continuing to empower the skill of basket weaving in their local township.
