Multi-color star woven fair-trade basket - made by artisan from the Peruvian Amazon
This gorgeous basket has a ring of multi-color chevrons around the rim and a star flower in the middle accented with an orange and black huayruru seed in the center. A native artisan from a village along the Maranon River in the Peruvian Amazon made this beauty with all natural plant dyes. Rich autumn colors adorn this basket and the size makes it perfect for displaying solo or with a collection of baskets to make a gallery wall. It could also be used as a table centerpiece or a catchall in any room of the house.

Support native artisans & rainforest in the Amazon

Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
