Xhosa Reed Side Table

Handwoven by Xhosa women in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, these spool shaped side tables are built on a hard wire frame and covered with river reed native to the area. The free-form construction means each table is unique, with sculptural qualities that make them as much an object as a piece of furniture. The weavers behind this collection work as part of a community project, providing employment and continuing to pass on the skill of basket weaving within their local township. Xhosa Reed Side Table measure approx 50cm high x 50cm in diameter Because each piece is handmade, each one is unique. The group image listed provides a sense of the designs we have on hand.
