You will receive a basket nearly identical to this one pictured, but please keep in mind every basket is uniquely handwoven and can differ slightly. Rural weavers in Rwanda of all tribes, including Hutus and Tutsis, work side by side to produce these uniquely woven baskets. The baskets are a message of reconciliation, peace, and hope for the future. These traditional Rwandan baskets are woven using native grasses, reeds, and sisal fibers. In Rwanda, basket weaving is passed down from generation to generation, from grandmother to mother to daughter.
