Tembo Woven Baskets

The Tembo block woven basket, has a chic black and natural colourway, designed to enhance any décor scheme.

These baskets are hand made by a small Kenyan weaving cooperative of forty ladies, all of whom have woven baskets from a young age – having been taught this traditional African craft by female elders in their families and communities. What was once a traditional pastime is now an income stream for these hardworking women, and your purchases enable us to keep this precious craft alive. 

Buying these blocked colour baskets actively supports the weavers in supporting their families through the perilous dry seasons, where subsistence farming - their main source of revenue – can suffer. We are proud to empower women with the flexibility that basket weaving offers.
