For the people of the Mixteca region of Mexico, basket-weaving is a way of life that also sustains life. With a dexterity passed down through generations, ancestry come to life in the tireless work of fingers, the weavers weave palms into vibrant, multi-colored baskets. On the outskirts of Oaxaca City, Doña Martina Garcia and her group of eight artisan basket weavers produce roughly 700 baskets per month.
For each artisan involved, basket-weaving means a stable monthly income used for building a house, starting a small business, or purchasing food and medicine. For Doña Martina (pictured left), her steady sales through GlobeIn have meant being able to spend more time at home, where she can work on her baskets while taking care of her children. Recently, she sold her stall in the Oaxaca Crafts Market, where she had been selling for ten years, and has dedicated herself and her small team to working entirely for GlobeIn.
This is a cute basket. I have several. Some of them bend a little at the top making the top not fit as great but they do form if you stuff them for a little while.
What a nice little basket, I am using it to hold face masks!😷
The natural handwoven basket is perfect for storage. I have them on my dresser and all the little things that have no home fit perfectly. The other in the bathroom with all my hair ties, clips, and other hair things.
I use the bottoms, the tops...separate or together. These are nicely made, very attractive, and they look so much nicer than my little piles of clutter that are now organized. I love the various colors and designs.
Love this basket! I enjoy collecting them. The natural is as pictured but without the GI tag. Good purchase!
