Product Description
Zulu Hand Woven Telephone Wire Basket - Turquoise & Red: Kitchen & Dining. Baskets measure 6 inch diameter, 2.5 inch tall. Gorgeous Hand Woven Turquoise & Red African Zulu Telephone Wire Basket. Handmade in Africa, these striking telephone wire woven baskets in bright colors are the signature mark of contemporary Zulu handicraft. They are both elegant and charming, making them a lovely home décor gift. Known as imbenge baskets, the Zulu believe they add pride, warmth and dignity to a home. We couldn't agree more. Whether you use them as a bright decor accent or for serving nuts and crackers, they offer a startling burst of color and simple design. The basket weaving tradition in Africa originally called for grasses and natural fibers. As those materials came into short supply, the weavers began using colorful telephone wires in their place.Each weaver creates their own designs - some traditional, others more contemporary. We happen to love the beautiful simplicity of these spiral designs in brilliant colors. Baskets are not sealed to hold liquid, rather feature an open weave.
