Fall Harvest Decorative Basket - Fair Trade Handwoven by Peruvian Amazon Artisan
The colors in this basket are reminiscent of the rich colors of fall with its beautiful orange, brown, and cream-colored fibers. Made from the Chambira palm trees near the Peruvian Amazon rainforest, the artisans carefully dye and weave these fibers into beautiful creations.
This basket makes a beautiful centerpiece on any table or is a convenient place to hold keys, coins, fruit, or knick-knacks. You can combine several baskets to hang and create a stunning gallery wall.
Your purchase of one of these baskets supports:
- forest conservation
- local needs in traditional communities in Peru
- the artisan from the Tahuayo River who made the basket
Each basket comes with a tag listing the name of the artisan who made it and a handy hanging loop on the back. These baskets were handmade by different artisans so the exact design may vary from the photo shown for this model.

Support native artisans & rainforest in the Amazon
Amazon forest loss is driving species to extinction, aggravating global warming, and robbing people of unique medicines, foods and other benefits. Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
