Boutique Kaleidoscope Family set

All of our woven bowls are created from dyed natural sisal fibers woven over a core of forest grasses. The weavers begin in the middle of the basket, carefully threading the sisal around and around to create this beautiful design. The creamy white color is the natural color of the sisal fibers when they are extracted from the plant.

The large woven bowl is flat on the bottom and makes a beautiful tray for serving or display. Imagine the medium bowl on your dining room table filled with warm bread or fruit. The small bowl is a beautiful way to hold jewelry or keys, or it may be filled with small treats and used as a gift basket. Each woven bowl has a loop on the back for hanging- the trio looks gorgeous on a blank wall.

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.

Arrange your basket wall set just as we’ve shown it, or create your own masterpiece. Place the pieces close together for a collected look or spread them out for a more open display. You can even add more bowls and trivets from our collection to create a basket wall that is uniquely yours.

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