Long-Necked Ilala Garlic Gourd Basket
Long-Necked Ilala Garlic Gourd Basket
Description
Crafted with care in Zimbabwe by skilled artisans, each basket is a testament to the beauty of imperfection, boasting organic shapes that set them apart as one-of-a-kind pieces. Whether showcased solo or grouped together, these baskets are sure to captivate attention and add a touch of natural elegance to any space.
The natural beauty of our pieces lies in the unique color variations of Ilala palm grass fiber. Harvested from the same plant, these fibers reflect the conditions of their environment, resulting in subtle differences in tone. Depending on the season—whether wetter or drier—the dried fibers may showcase hues ranging from soft greens to creamy whites or warm yellows. This organic variation adds character to every piece, making each one truly one of a kind. While we strive for consistency within batches, these natural tones are a testament to the authentic, handcrafted process and truly unique.
