Description

This natural straw basket takes inspiration from fish traps and is crafted by the people of Lesotho in South Africa.

Ideal for organizing your everyday items, this basket features a flat base and a slightly flared shape, making it a practical accessory for storing blankets, newspapers, toys, and much more.

The most prevalent traditional craft in Lesotho involves working with herbs. Thanks to the abundance of diverse herbs in the mountain highlands, artisans always have access to raw materials. Basotho women across the country showcase great talent in the art of basket weaving. These baskets, crafted from sturdy local herbs, are carefully woven and secured with fine cotton twine.
