Classic Bowl Basket - Woven Chindi on Steel Frame

These baskets have a hidden frame hand-welded from steel. Each basket is then woven with cords that have been made from torn fabric ("chindi") made from authentic Indian saris.The baskets are made through a project that empowers women and teaches them new trades (like welding and small business practices) in India. These baskets use discarded fabrics from the Indian textile industry. By reusing discarded fabric remnants, the project helps reduce, reuse, and recycle while keeping the price of the raw materials inexpensive. That is why these works of art are so reasonably priced.We absolutely love the colors, the texture, and usefulness of these unique baskets. The unique mix of sari patterns used yields distinct baskets, despite similar shapes and designs.
