Mimi Mint & Cherry Women’s Cooperative Woven Basket

The Mimi colour block basket is a splash of fresh mint green against cheering cherry pink. We stock this basket in a medium size for postal despatch, but we may have other sizes available in store!

These handwoven baskets come in three different sizes and can be used as small planters and desk tidies, plus they’re great for storing jewellery, stationery, gloves and slippers, knitting, remote controls, toys and blankets. All these baskets are handwoven by a small collective of female weavers living near the Masinga Dam in Kenya – one of seven dams on the River Tana. Their chairlady started managing basket production in 1993, and today she leads several groups with specific production roles from twisting to dyeing and weaving sisal fibres.
