THE BASKETROOM | Sahan Blue & Red Wool Basket | Extra Large

HK$680.00

A striking floor basket with blue and red, SAHANI is hand woven by a highly skilled member of the Kamba tribe in Kenya using local sisal and yarns from second hand woolly jumpers. Each one of these Nifty Knit baskets is unique, so there’s only one SAHANI in the world. These XL baskets make brilliant planters for your large houseplants and can also be used to store logs, throws and rugs, shoes and slippers, towels, laundry and playroom toys. The beauty of these woven baskets is that you’ll keep finding uses for them as the years go by. 

These African baskets – also known as kiondos - take astonishing skill to produce, and up to six days to complete. The traditional weaving skills required to produce each basket are passed along the female line in Kenyan families, though the craft has seen a steep decline recently. In 2004 only four craftswomen in this weaving group had the experience to produce them, but today there are fifty active members reviving this vital craft thanks to a surge in demand from the interiors industry.

You become a supporter of this traditional craft when you bring home one of these striped storage baskets, and you support us in bringing flexible and sustainable work to the Kamba weavers, whose main incomes rely on farming, and therefore, decent rainfall
