🌍 Handmade in Uganda

The Story

Handwoven in Uganda from doum palm leaf, these lidded baskets combine bold color blocking with traditional weaving techniques. The sunflower yellow or burnt orange accents contrast beautifully with the natural palm, creating a functional piece that adds warmth and visual interest to any room.

Doum palm is a robust, eco-friendly material that holds its shape while remaining lightweight enough to move easily. Each basket is woven entirely by hand, so slight variations in dimensions and color intensity make every piece unique.
