Grey With White And Blue Stripes. The Douwe Basket.

These Douwe baskets are slightly different from our standard baskets. Instead of leather handles they have handles made from repurposed matting.

  • The main part of the basket is handwoven and made from reeds grown in the Gambia and intertwined with discarded plastic mats.
  • The baskets are handwoven and will have imperfections. They are not mass produced in a factory where absolute perfection is machine achieved. We believe handcrafted imperfections make the product beautiful and unique. 
  • Made by IMADI WORLD basket weavers in Senegal. 

Dimensions

Dimensions are not uniform and will vary between 5-10%. Baskets are woven by many weavers living in different villages. They will have their own technique and style but will try their best to weave to a “ standard”

  • Small: height 65cm / diameter 30cm
  • Medium: height 75cm / diameter 35cm
  • Grand: height 85cm / diameter 40cm
