Bring a splash of Kenyan colour to any corner of the home with our turquoise and natural colour blocked baskets, hand woven in three different sizes. Our LAZIMA baskets are produced by an extremely skilled weaving cooperative in South Western Kenya and can be used all over the home as fruit baskets and desk tidies, nursery storage, large planters and flower pots.

We keep this highly skilled collective busy with regular orders for this collection of baskets, so sisal grass is sourced ready-rolled when the group received order from us. This local grass is hand-dyed in large vats under the supervision of a dye manager, and hung out to dry before the weaving begins. Basket weaving is a complex skill that most weavers have practiced from a young age, having been taught by female elders in the family.

Buying our baskets empowers women. We are dedicated to the progress of fair trade and our work with cooperatives helps these women to support themselves and their families through flexible and fairly-paid work: work which can be done here and there, around farming work and family responsibilities.
