{"product_id":"hairy-red-wavy-basket-rust-coil-handwoven-ghana","title":"Hairy Red Wavy Basket | Rust Coil, Handwoven Ghana","description":"\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.85; color: #4a3828; margin: 0 0 16px;\"\u003eA dramatic sculptural basket handwoven in Ghana from elephant grass, shaped into a deep rust-red form whose flowing coils seem to move around the body of the piece. Substantial and self-supporting, it functions as floor sculpture, generous storage, or a singular art object. Approximately 25 inches high and 24 inches wide. One of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.85; color: #6b4f3a; margin: 0 0 16px;\"\u003eIn Ghana’s Upper East Region, master Frafra weavers harvest elephant grass by hand, then split, soak, and soften each strand before weaving. Natural dyes give the basket its rich rust coloration, and because the grass absorbs pigment at its own pace, the tone deepens and lifts across the coils, creating a surface that feels alive rather than uniform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.85; color: #6b4f3a; margin: 0 0 24px;\"\u003eEvery curve is coiled by hand, the structure rising without molds or hidden framework. The weaver reads the form as it develops, adjusting tension to coax the silhouette outward and back. This slow, deliberate process carries knowledge held within small weaving communities, where technique and cultural identity are preserved alongside room for contemporary, sculptural expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"height: 1px; background: #EDE8DF; margin: 0 0 20px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0 0 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 11px; font-weight: 600; letter-spacing: 0.12em; text-transform: uppercase; color: #2a1f14; margin: 0 0 10px;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.9; color: #4a3828; margin: 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-weight: 500; color: #2a1f14;\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 25″ diameter × 24″ H (64 × 61 cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-weight: 500; color: #2a1f14;\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Naturally dyed elephant grass, rust red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-weight: 500; color: #2a1f14;\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handwoven in Ghana by Frafra master weavers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-weight: 500; color: #2a1f14;\"\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sculptural organic basket, shaped by hand without mold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-weight: 500; color: #2a1f14;\"\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of one · SKU NAN-039\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"height: 1px; background: #EDE8DF; margin: 0 0 20px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.75; color: #6b4f3a; margin: 0 0 16px;\"\u003eShown to best effect low to the ground, where the eye can follow its coils all the way up.
