Blue Stripe Storage Basket with Lid - Handwoven Senegal

This basket is handwoven by Wolof women in rural Senegal from natural millet grass, coiled and bound with recycled plastic strands that form its blue-and-white stripes and add real durability. The techniques are traditional, passed down through generations of weavers.

Because each basket is shaped by hand, slight variations make every piece unique. Each purchase supports rural Senegalese artisan communities and helps sustain their craft.
