Upcycled baskets woven by May and her family near Pakkoku, Magway Region. 'Zay' means 'market' in Myanmar, we love this style as a shopping basket! The longer handles are designed to carry groceries.
- 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 Zun Chit 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.
