The simple, yet strikingly bold Monochrome Basket Collection is a timeless statement that will add depth and meaning to your unique environment. Every eye-catching basket is handwoven using sustainably sourced, hand-dyed black raffia or naturally dried banana leaf, twisted and wrapped around coils of banana stalk fibers, creating both structure and stunning designs.

"Since weaving my life has changed, I have gained freedom and can support my family and I thank God for this. It was a hard life before I joined the basket weaving cooperative, I was a widow supporting five children.  But when I joined this group I met different women with similar lives who were working and earning money to support their families. We meet every Saturday, we sit for two hours, making these baskets, giving each other advice and much needed comfort."

Give new life to descended materials. The Ankole Horn Collection brings a second generation and new form to native Ankole Watusi cow horn. Rural Ugandan cattle farmers depend on raising herds that both brings food to markets and supports their families and communities. The horn is an upcycled material that is creatively reused into truly one of a kind home decor and jewelry items. No two pieces are alike.

Barkcloth is a venerated fabric with deep significance to the cultural identity of Uganda for over 700 years. Made from the inner bark of the Mutuba tree, barkcloth is produced in a laborious process using wooden mallets to flatten the bark into supple cloth with stunning signature colors that vary from terracotta to rust to deep cognac-brown. After each harvest, the exposed trunk is wrapped in banana leaves to protect it as new bark regrows. Trees can be harvested once a year for up to 60+ years providing a sustainable commodity while preserving cultural traditions.
