Butterfly Straw Basket

Each basket is handcrafted using veta vera straw harvested from the top of the kinkahe grass, allowing the roots to remain in the soil so the plant can naturally regrow. The straw is split, twisted for strength, and carefully dyed to create rich, vibrant colors.

Skilled artisans weave each basket from the base up, selecting the best grasses for durability and beauty. The rim is neatly finished and loose ends are trimmed for a clean, polished look.

Every basket features beautiful leather handles crafted by local leatherworkers, adding both strength and style.

Because each basket is handmade, a medium basket takes about three days to complete, making every piece a unique work of art.
