Tintsaba baskets are recognised as world class, transcending the traditional craft into gallery art.
Using a fine coiling technique, the baskets are woven from sisal fibre.
Before the sisal is ready for weaving it must be stripped, cleaned, and spun by hand. Weaving is a labour-intensive task; it can up to 50 hours to spin the fine yarn and complete the weaving of a basket.
Each item is hand crafted, and patterns may vary slightly from the image shown.
