The sunburst pattern on these baskets is known as the “hope” design. Reflected on the Rwandan flag, these sunburst images stands for the county’s collective hope for a new dawn and brighter future. This design means a lot to the weavers we partner with, as each basket they sell increases their chances for a better life.
This heat-resistant trivet is perfect to set a tea kettle on or hot dish from the oven. With a woven loop attached on the back, they can be hung up as wall décor for a globally inspired feel.
