Senegal Green Prayer Mat Warming Basket

A network of rural Wolof women in ten Senegalese villages are working together to create beautiful handcrafted baskets for export. Using locally grown cattail stalks and strips of plastic used to make prayer mats and rugs, the women bring supplemental income to their households by weaving baskets between their daily duties.

This richly colored basket is useful in the kitchen and throughout the home. The included lid helps keep baked goods warm, so you can fill it with your own home baked treats to create a unique hostess gift.
