Each piece is artisan-made—no two are exactly alike. Photos shown are representative; your piece may vary slightly in color, shape, or pattern.
The Contemporary Makenge Basket celebrates the artistry of Zambia’s Mbundu and Losi women, offering a refreshed version of the vintage Makenge Baskets. Handwoven from resilient makenge roots, these baskets carry the same cultural significance while showing less wear and no curled root details. Subtle traces of past use remain, preserving their authenticity and connection to tradition.
Each basket is completely one of a kind, taking up to two weeks to complete and traditionally given as a treasured wedding gift. The natural variations in color—from dark to light browns and golden tones—and the unique patterns, ranging from rings and dots to intricate weave designs, make every piece a distinctive work of art. Whether displayed as wall décor or used functionally, these baskets bring heritage, character, and timeless beauty into any space.
