This versatile Ikiba Blue Squares Storage Basket adds a touch of hand made global decor to any room. A perfect storage container, it has both practical functionality and contemporary look that would look at home in practically any space. Use it as a hamper for towels in the bathroom or throw blanket in the den, toys in a kid’s room or hats and gloves in your entryway - its uses are endless! This piece is part of our Refugee Collection of hand woven baskets made by Burundian refugee artisans in the Mtendeli Camp in northwest Tanzania. Talk about a product with an incredible story! The feed sacks in which refugees receive their monthly food rations are recycled and woven with the grasses native to the region, which gives these baskets their white color. They are accented with minimalist designs in colorful threads giving them a modern look, perfect for adding a touch of handmade to a contemporary space. Truly a purchase with purpose, every sale of these baskets directly benefits a refugee woman weaver and her family..
