Tonga Garlic Basket | XL

These Garlic Baskets are made entirely of Ilala palm leaves in rural Bulawayo, Zimbabwe by women of the Ndebele tribe. The weaving is traditional and passed along from one generation to the next. Women gather to weave and connect with each other under the shade of large trees with their children playing nearby. The baskets are measured using a soft tape measure like a seamstress would use. The tape is run from the center of the base of the basket, around the curve of the bowl, then up the neck. Because of the wide variety of shapes of these baskets, the measurement is a CONTOUR measurement.
