baskets from Namibia

Rare Khwe Baskets.

These beautiful baskets were traditionally used for collecting wild fruits, nuts and edible tubers. They are very rare as the baskets are only woven seasonally when the raw material, palm, is available.
We work with a non-profit organization in Namibia that was founded more than 30 years ago. Through their commitment to getting people excited about this traditional handicraft, the lives of thousands of Namibians - craftsmen, artists and their families - have changed. Sustainable livelihoods in rural communities are continuously promoted and supported through the sale of the baskets.
