Garlic Gourds – Handwoven African Baskets

Add texture and organic beauty to your home with the exquisite Handwoven Garlic Gourds. Carefully crafted by Ndebele artisans in the Bulawayo region of Zimbabwe, these baskets are intricately woven from ilala palm, a natural and sustainable material. Perfect as statement pieces, they can be displayed singularly or grouped together on floors, shelves, or tables.

Each basket is truly unique, showcasing the natural tones and irregular shapes of the ilala palm. The fibrous leaves, dried to a creamy hue, are stripped and sliced into fine or thick fibers depending on the basket's style, ensuring every piece has its own distinct character.

These baskets reflect a rich tradition of craftsmanship, with skills passed down through generations. Originally used to collect and store grain in villages, these functional works of art now bring a touch of heritage and authenticity to modern interiors. By supporting these artisans, you help empower their communities and sustain this timeless craft.

• Delivery location
• Freight carrier rates

Furniture Delivery Options

Please Note

• Furniture orders cannot be cancelled once confirmed.
