Description
Made with cattail stalks and upcycled plastic 16D x 26-28T Handcrafted in Senegal These amply sized laundry hamper storage baskets feature braided plastic handles and a snug-fitting removable lid. Wolof women in the West African nation of Senegal update traditional coil weaving methods by enlivening natural grass baskets with colorful strips of plastic salvaged from a mat factory. Cattails grow abundantly in rural Senegal, so women can earn a sustainable income from basket weaving while enriching homes around the world with modern African craftsmanship. Because this is a handcrafted item, each will vary slightly. *By law, containers shipped from Africa are fumigated. Other than the fumigation process, the fibers are not treated with any other chemicals.
