On the rolling hills of Rwanda, the sisal plant grows tall and strong. It takes nearly two years before the plant is ready to harvest. With a steady hand, a woman artisan carefully cuts one of its long, spiky leaves with a machete, leaving the plant to continue growing.

The green outer layers are stripped away by hand using water and skill, revealing the strong natural fibers beneath. The fibers are washed, dried, and prepared for weaving.

Some sisal receives its beautiful golden color from an unexpected source—Rwandan tea. The fibers are dipped in locally grown tea, creating a warm, natural tone. Other colors are dyed in our color lab, where sisal is carefully colored in small batches to achieve the perfect shade for each design.
Then the weaving begins. Using a needle and sisal thread, she stitches tiny coils around a bundle of natural grasses, building each piece from the center outward. Every bowl is woven by hand, one stitch at a time.

A single bowl can take several days and thousands of individual stitches to complete. Behind every finished piece is a skilled woman artisan whose creativity, patience, and craftsmanship transform a simple plant into something beautiful, functional, and made to last.

Use the Sutton Woven Basket to corral blankets, towels, toys, or everyday essentials while adding natural texture and handcrafted beauty to your space. Its open, organic design also makes a beautiful planter—add your favorite potted plant for an easy, natural accent. The Tassel Strands add a playful finishing touch wherever you place it.

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and do not submerge in water.
