ARE YOU A TRADE PROFESSIONAL?

NB: Colours on the newest batch are reversed—brown base and white top—pending image change.

Natural soot and earthy hues bring two-tone synergy in this naturally-dyed, hand-woven storage basket. These CHAMA natural woven baskets are produced in three different sizes by a rural Kenyan weaving cooperative and make beautiful decorative storage baskets for all over the home.

The women who produce these two-tone natural baskets have woven from a young age: this careful, income-generating craft is traditionally passed down along the female line in Kenya. These craftswomen weave within a small but expanding cooperative led by the inspirational Madam Dorcas as Chairlady. Where once these weavers would travel regularly to Nairobi to sell their woven baskets, the basket room now provides them with regular and fairly paid orders. Completed baskets are stored in purpose-built mud huts before being shipped to the basket room in the Cotswolds.

Production takes place primarily during the dry seasons, since the majority of weavers are from farming families who rely largely on subsistence farming and rainfall. To buy one of the basket room's woven baskets is to become part of the basket room's story: a tale of empowerment, dignity, and fair trade.

  • Material: SISAL & BRANDED LEATHER TAB

  • Dimensions (approx): * XS: 12.5-13.5cm DIA x 12.5-13.5cm H / 4-5" DIA x 4-5" H

    • XL: 30-33cm DIA x 30-33cm H / 11-12" DIA x 11-12" H

Please note: As this is a handmade product, dimensions and colour may vary from those shown in the photographs, adding to their unique charm.
