Round Zulu Basket with Lid- South Africa
Scattered on Kwazulu Natal undulating hills, there is a hive of industry where many women engage in the craft of basket making. They have transformed the traditional art form into a means of support and income 🛖
A medium-sized basket might take up to a month to make because each one is handmade and completely unique.
Ilala palm and ncebe are used to make baskets ( wild banana bark) and used in ceremonies, the ukhamba basket is customarily utilised.
