Handwoven Tonga Wall Decor Basket Trays Set of Three
Regular price
$169.00 USD
Style these handwoven baskets into a striking wall display that brings authentic African craftsmanship to your home. Mbare artisans in the Binga district of Northern Zimbabwe create each piece using traditional weaving techniques.
Tonga women harvest wild grasses, small vines, and palm leaves to build these trays. They dye the natural fibers with tree bark for rich, earthy tones. You will appreciate the coiled rims finished with a distinctive herringbone pattern. It takes about two weeks to complete a 16-inch basket, so you hold real artisan effort.
Every basket features a unique geometric pattern, so your wall decor never looks repetitive. You can hang them to display jewelry, keys, or small potted plants. The largest bowls in this set are traditionally used by the Tonga people to winnow grains.
Purchasing this fairly traded set helps a Zimbabwean family raise their standard of living. It also supports a community dedicated to keeping traditional weaving crafts alive.
Set Details
- Varied Sizes: The set includes a small (12-15" d), a medium (15-17" d), and a large (17.5-22" d) tray.
- Natural Materials: Crafted from locally harvested wild grasses, vines, and tree-bark-dyed palm leaves.
- Unique Designs: Patterns vary for each basket, ensuring a one-of-a-kind wall arrangement.
- African Origin: Handmade by Tonga women makers in Zimbabwe.
Display your favorite rings and earrings on the small tray. Use the large bowl to hold decorative potpourri on your nightstand.
