Peace Baskets

DESCRIPTION: Across the thousand hills of Rwanda, groups of women are sitting together, weaving sisal baskets in the traditional way.

These fibers are cleaned and dried, cooked in dye, and then woven into traditional forms- such as the peaked peace basket, or less traditional forms- like earrings or napkin rings.
In Rwanda, these Sisal Lidded Peace Baskets are given at weddings or on other special occasions, containing gifts of friendship and thanks. Simple yet thoughtful, the traditional pattern symbolizes the mountain path of friends bearing such gifts, hidden in baskets.
