Chiku Bread Basket

Dress your dining table in style with the bold CHIKU woven bread basket. Featuring nu orange with a pop of bright pink on its rim, this basket positively bursts with Kenyan colour. These sisal bread baskets can be used for rolls, sliced loaves or fruit, avocadoes, nuts or cutlery and napkins. They also make great bedside table baskets: perfect for keeping your watches, jewellery and toiletries in one stylish space. 

The talented women behind these natural woven baskets all learned to weave baskets from their mothers and grandmothers, and practise this traditional craft within a small weaving group in rural Kenya. Basket weaving is portable, sociable and flexible work: these women weave in pockets of time throughout the day and the week, fitting in this reliable work around childcare and domestic duties. Weaving work supplements incomes made from farming, which can be unpredictable in the dry seasons.
