  • Small cone-shaped basket, meticulously handwoven with colorful telephone wire by Fair Trade Zulu makers in Africa
  • Eye-catching stripes in shades of green, blue, and copper
  • Each basket is individually handmade; no two are alike, and patterns will resemble, but not match, the photos
  • Approximately 5.75 x 2.75 inches (sizes may vary slightly)
  • Can be used with dry foods and washed with warm, soapy water

Talented Zulu makers in rural South Africa combine colorful telephone wire with traditional weaving techniques to create these beautiful, collectible baskets. Each is individually handcrafted, and no two are exactly alike. This fusion of past and present enables Zulu families to achieve the dignity of work and self-sufficiency.

The baskets are imported into the United States by Bridge for Africa, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. They pay their artist partners a living wage, promote sustainable development in Africa, and educate U.S. consumers about the benefits of Fair Trade in fighting poverty in the developing world. Your purchase will grace your home with authentic beauty while advancing hope for future generations of African artisans.
