We believe in constantly reinventing traditional weaving techniques.  With the help of Gogo 'Grandmother' Christina this beautifully unique plant pot was designed.

Unique to the Lavusmisa region of Swaziland these intricately designed woven baskets are stitched together using the Lutindzi grass coiled around bundles of Lukhasi grass.

Inclusive of the plant hanger.

Materials

Lutindzi - is sourced directly from the mountains of Swaziland. It is sustainably harvested by cutting above the root and is proven to be waterproof and stain-resistant due to its strong, waxy finish.

Sisal - a regenerating weed from the Lavumisa area of Swaziland, provides a fine fibre that can be dyed a spectrum of bright and light colours.

Lukhasi - a strong, thick grass which is found in the swamp areas and used in its raw form as the strengthening core of our sturdy products

All fibres are dyed using environmentally friendly German dyes imported from South Africa.
