Small Tonga Filigree Wall Basket

In the Binga District of northern Zimbabwe, skilled BaTonga women craft beautiful all-natural baskets from locally harvested palm leaves and wild twigs. A chic addition to the wall or tabletop, each basket showcases a subtle woven design. The BaTonga people once farmed fertile land that was flooded by the damming of Lake Karibu, so weavers displaced across the lake demonstrate similar yet clearly distinctive styles. 

As this is a handcrafted item, each basket will vary.

Dimensions: 12-13"L x 12-13"W x 1.5-2"H

Crafted from: Palm leaves, twigs
