Zulu Herb Basket - Short

Hand-woven from local grasses by Zulu women in Zululand, KwaZulu-Natal, these tall lidded baskets were traditionally used to store herbs. Each is woven using natural dyeing techniques to create geometric patterns or simple line detailing, making every piece distinct. The weavers work as part of a local co-operative, ensuring the skill of basketry continues to be passed down through generations while providing a reliable income for artisans in the region. Each basket is one-of-a-kind. Short Zulu herb baskets range in size from 12-17cm high x 13cm in diameter As each piece is handmade, each one is unique.
