Verdure / vert de gris rwandais panier

Intricately woven. Craftswomen in Rwanda use timeless tradition to weave carefully dyed sisal fibers and sweet grass to make stunning one of a kind pieces rich in cultural meaning and purpose. They are just the right size to be used as a dramatic center piece, item for wall décor or even as a catch-all for storage, with the guaranteed “wow!” response from guests. Baskets carry their own symbolism in Rwanda. Because friends give them to celebrate major life events such as weddings, births and graduations, baskets are proudly displayed as symbols of wealth of friends, family and life.
