Artisan: Kasigau Weavers

This hand-woven basket is crafted from natural sisal fibres in a range of vibrant colours found in the national dress of Kenya. Please note that the colours may vary as each basket is unique.

Kenya is renowned for its delicate hand-woven baskets, which still feature there in everyday life. This basket is made by a group of 30 women for whom basket-making has become increasingly important in the past years, as crops have been destroyed by elephants migrating through their fields to the Tsovo East National Park.


• Dimensions: approximately 16in (43cm) d. x 12in (30cm) h.
