Muyonde (Zebra) Basket - large

These lovely baskets are crafted by the NEEPU Woman's Group in western Uganda..  These women use one or more of the following native materials in these beautiful innovative and useful baskets:  village grown millet, reeds, papyrus, banana leaves and bark, as well as palm raffia.  The bright colors are obtained by the use of commercial dyes. 

15 - 16 inches in diameter.  Since these baskets are handcrafted, no two are ever identical; designs and colors may vary somewhat from those shown, as each basket is a one-of-a-kind creation.

Asante Network also carries these baskets in a smaller size.  The additional images illustrate the size comparisons.
