Vintage Handwoven African Botswana Coiled Cone Harvest Basket - Flower Design 17”
This beautiful handwoven basket originates from Botswana, where skilled artisans use traditional coiling techniques passed down through generations. Crafted from natural palm fiber (commonly known as Mokola palm), this basket features a striking geometric flower pattern created with naturally dyed fibers in warm, earthy tones.
Each stitch is done by hand, making every basket a unique work of functional art. These baskets were traditionally used for gathering, storing, and serving food, and today they are highly sought after as decorative pieces, wall art, or sculptural accents in modern interiors.
