"Katakuru“ means "to pick up“ in Swahili, the national language of Tanzania. As such, our Katakuru's are ideal for storing household items, toys or baby articles and also provide a beautiful option to display your potted plants.

For this specific Katakuru, the threads of upcycled white Gunia grain sacks are intricately woven into the natural grasses of the basket. With it’s simple and modern design, this Katakuru will add style and character to your 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.
