Salsa Woven Basket

The Salsa ruby/pink colour block storage baskets are available in three handy sizes and can be used as flower pots and planters for indoor plants, desk tidies and fruit baskets. Use in the bathroom for toiletries or loo rolls, or on your dressing table for keeping jewellery and knick-knacks all in one place.

These baskets are handwoven by a small collective of female weavers living near the Masinga Dam in Kenya – one of seven dams on the River Tana. Their chairlady started managing basket production in 1993, and today she leads several groups with specific production roles from twisting to dyeing and weaving sisal fibres.

Backing all the values of fair trade, The Basket Room work with weaving cooperatives empowers women to support their families with a flexible income in the dry seasons, where subsistence farming often fails to meet the needs of the family. When you take home one of these woven baskets you actively support these weavers and their families, supporting our commitment to dignified working conditions.
