Amsha - Fine Weave Patterned Sisal Basket

Form meets function, woven and dyed by hand, with materials of the earth. 

These fine-sisal baskets are crafted by a weaving cooperative in southeastern Kenya. The sisal fibers are hand-dyed and and then woven into works of art. These particular baskets require advanced technique to weave as the fiber is spun finly to allow for more intricate, nuanced pattern-building.

*If used as a planter, ensure you plant in a water-resistant vessel with a drainage plate.  These are not for direct planting as they are made from materials of the earth that will degrade when exposed to repeated moisture.
