This versatile set of nesting baskets is handwoven by talented rural Kenyan women using strands of sisal dyed in black and golden brown tones. Sold as a set of two nesting baskets. We recommend spraying lightly with cold water to reshape baskets.
In the rural Kenyan countryside around the city of Kitui, women specialize in weaving the tough fibers of the agave sisalana plant. Sisal's spiky leaf clusters erupt from a dry landscape and often require long journeys to gather. Once woven, these baskets are sold to local and international markets. Singing, dancing, and chatting make weaving for export an enjoyable social event!
