The Story of the Buhera Basket – Handcrafted Fairtrade Elegance
These extraordinary Buhera baskets are a true celebration of tradition and craftsmanship. Woven by the Hera people in the Buhera district of central Zimbabwe, these tribal art baskets are created using creeping vines and climbing plants. Traditionally, they’ve been used for storing grain and other dried foods, but today, they make stunning decorative pieces—perfect for displaying tall dried flowers or branches.
Each Buhera basket is handmade, fair trade, and eco-friendly. Their organic shapes and natural tones add warmth and texture to your home, blending beautifully with both modern and rustic interiors. Because every basket is crafted by hand, no two are exactly alike, giving each piece its own unique character. This individuality makes them even more charming and ideal for pairing with other baskets for a layered, textured look.
Decorating with natural materials like these baskets comes with so many benefits. Want to learn more? Head over to our blog, where we share the advantages of incorporating sustainable, handmade pieces into your interior.
