This large white hand-woven primitive basket measuring at 13'h x 12"w is a traditional crafted item that showcases skillful craftsmanship and a connection to cultural heritage. Typically made from natural materials such as reeds, grasses, or vines, these baskets are handwoven using techniques passed down through generations. The "white" aspect may refer to the use of light-colored materials or the final product's appearance, which could be achieved by using specific plant fibers or through bleaching processes. These baskets often have a utilitarian function, such as carrying, storing, or organizing goods, but they can also serve as decorative or ceremonial pieces. The weaving technique used in creating such baskets is often simple yet intricate, with each woven strand contributing to the overall strength and structure. Their design reflects a balance between form and function, embodying both practicality and artistry.
