1 review
£45.00
Upcycled baskets woven by May in Magway Region. Perfect to use for going to get groceries, as a beach basket, or for storage in the home - the possibilities are endless!
Pieces of pallet banding, usually stapled across crates for shipping, are woven to create lasting baskets.
Weaving these baskets is the only source of livelihood for May and her family, some of whom are living with physical disabilities or are very elderly.
This type of basket is a feature of everyday life across Myanmar due to their sturdiness, durability and water resistant properties.

I love this bag. I received one as a present last year and have now bought two to give as presents. I like the provenance and the story on the card inside the bag and the recycled nature of the product.
