Giant Nongo Ilala Palm Weave Basket

Timeless elegance, handwoven for your home by Zimbabwe's BaTonga artisans.

Transform your home with the timeless elegance of the Giant Nongo Basket, an exquisite piece handwoven by the BaTonga people in Zimbabwe, Africa. Each basket is crafted using locally harvested organic materials such as dried palm leaves, wild grasses, and vines, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and traditional weaving techniques of the region. These pot-shaped baskets feature simple yet striking geometric patterns, with each piece boasting a unique woven design and shape.

The natural beauty of our pieces lies in the unique color variations of Ilala palm grass fiber. Harvested from the same plant, these fibers reflect the conditions of their environment, resulting in subtle differences in tone. Depending on the season—whether wetter or drier—the dried fibers may showcase hues ranging from soft greens to creamy whites or warm yellows. This organic variation adds character to every piece, making each one truly one of a kind. While we strive for consistency within batches, these natural tones are a testament to the authentic, handcrafted process and cannot be precisely controlled.
