Our sweet little Bakuli Bowls are carefully woven by hand by one of WomenCraft’s 600 women artisans in Tanzania. "Bakuli“ literally means "bowl“ in Swahili, the national language of Tanzania. For this bowl, white threads of upcycled “Gunia” grain sacks are intricately woven into the natural grasses. Our Bakulis are versatile and can be used to serve dry snacks but also as a nice way to store small items like keys, jewelry etc. The modern and light design brightens your room and adds character to any home.

Handmade from all natural and up cycled materials, local grasses, dried bark of banana trees and threads of up cycled gunia grain sacks. All our products are intricately woven by hand following traditional weaving techniques which have been passed down from generation to generation for hundreds of years. The weaving technique is very labor intensive so that even smaller products take several days to weave. Artisans use molds and are supervised by lead-weavers to ensure all products meet WomenCraft's high quality standards.
