Mauve block sweetgrass basket
This one-of-a-kind handwoven basket is crafted by artisans in Rwanda with social enterprise Indego Africa.
30cm W x 7.5cm H
Hand-dyed in mauve, blush, and purple
Made from strands of sisal wrapped around bunches of sweetgrass
Includes a loop on the back for hanging
Made from locally sourced fibres
The ideal housewarming gift and the perfect shape and size to be used as a fruit basket, hung in a cluster on a gallery wall, or simply placed as an accent piece in your favourite nook around the house or office.
The Impact
The artisan sector is the second-largest employer in the developing world. Yet the majority of artisans are women who lack access to export markets, business skills, and the financial tools needed to run successful global enterprises.
Indego Africa is dedicated to changing that by investing 100% of their profits into education programs for the women who handcraft our products and youth in their communities. Since 2007, Indego Africa has provided over 1,100 artisans and 250 young people in Rwanda & Ghana with employment opportunities, entrepreneurship training, and consistent access to the global export market.
