Love being with the highly talented and creative basket weavers who hand weave the most beautiful baskets for Manabaskets. Travelling throughout Kenya to purchase baskets in all colours and sizes, we are thrilled to bring you lots of vibrant colours in the SUBIRA range! Plus, it’s good to know that 100% of all profits are retained by Manasprings, to reinvest in women. Yes… your orders provide much needed income for women living in rural communities. Thank you for your support. Order from Manabaskets.
