Do you have company coming over or maybe the relatives pop in for a surprise visit sometimes? You'll definitely want to brighten up any room in your home with one (or both!) of these gorgeous Pop Top Chindi Baskets with their vibrant chindi colors and fitted lids. They're perfect for stashing all the stuff that hides in plain sight around the house.
Artisans wrap even sections of upcycled cotton sari fabric, also known as chindi, and cotton string around natural handwoven kaisa grass, lending color and texture to this sturdy handmade basket.
"Your purchase brings hope and opportunity to women in some of the poorest parts of Bangladesh, many of whom are widows, single mothers or heads-of-household with little or no income. Handcrafting income helps these disadvantaged artisans improve their standard of living and send their children to school.
"[...] With sales of their handmade products, more than 1,000 women at ten handcraft centers receive skill training and productive employment, regardless of their caste or creed. The use of sustainable, natural materials enhances their commitment to integrity, simplicity, and non-violence, and their focus on employment rather than maximized profits helps preserve the cultural heritage of Bangladesh."
** Due to the size of this basket, an additional shipping fee may be charged.
