Wolof women in rural Senegal coil and bind millet grass with plastic thread to form this tall, lidded basket — its two-tone coloring shifting from warm natural straw at the base to a cooler white-washed tone toward the lid. The domed top and looped side handles are as much a part of the form as the function, making this a piece that earns its place on a bedroom floor, beside a reading chair, or tucked into a bathroom corner.

Each basket is woven by hand, so slight variations in coiling density, tone, and handle placement are a natural part of the process — not a flaw.
