These baskets are handwoven with fast growing aquatic plants, a natural and sustainable material with low environmental impact. Because of the natural materials, the color, pattern and shape will vary.

[About Water Hyacinth]

In just 3-4 weeks, the water hyacinth plant quickly fills the areas it grows in, negatively impacting the aquatic ecosystem and river traffic in southern Vietnam. Local artisans in northern Vietnam make use of local traditions by hand-weaving these thick, long stems one at a time, creating a truly one of a kind basket with unique patterns and variations in colors.Β In turn, we help preserve the local culture, stimulate employment in the region, and maintain the environment through these baskets.
