Bariku – Black & Tea Woven Bowls

From: $29

The large woven bowl is flat on the bottom and makes a beautiful tray for serving or display. Imagine the medium woven bowl on your dining room table filled with warm bread or fruit. The small woven  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.

Description

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 tea color is created when the naturally-white sisal fibers are steeped in Rwandan-grown tea leaves!

The Handcrafted Details

  • Each bowl comes with a tag containing a bit of information on the artisan group that made it.
  • Artisans work 1-2 days to weave a small bowl, 2-3 days to weave a medium bowl and 5-7 days to weave a large tray.
  • Dimensions:  small bowl 7″ d; medium bowl 12″ d; large tray 16″ d.

Duteraninkunga Cooperative

The weavers of Duteraninkunga began as members of a savings and loan group who discovered that many had skills in weaving. Those weavers taught others in their group, and eventually a weaving cooperative was born. With strength and endurance, Duteraninkunga weavers craft baskets larger than most weavers have ever made in their whole lives!
