The Basket Room is an ethical lifestyle brand, specialising in handwoven baskets and accessories made in Africa. Woven with vibrant colours & unique patterns, we work directly with weaving cooperatives in rural Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania, Zambia & Zimbabwe to create stunning collections.

Versatile and beautiful, each basket can be used for organising bathroom toiletries, tidying away playroom toys, injecting some colour in to kitchen shelves, treating plants to a pretty pot cover, as a desk tidy, or pretty wall hanging. Our bike baskets and shoppers are the latest fashion accessories - perfect for shopping trips around town!

Our main goal is to create access to market for these talented weavers, to provide them with a sustainable income and recognition they deserve, whilst preserving an age-old tradition. Many of the weavers rely on subsistence farming, but when crops fail during dry periods, they turn to the art of weaving as an essential alternative revenue.

Our unique perspective allows us to provide a truly ethical product with minimum outside involvement. Photographs of the weavers with each basket enhances the connection between maker and buyer, and highlights the transparent supply chain.
