Infuse your home with the spirit of Tamghart by welcoming this exquisite handmade Moroccan basket, woven by skilled Berber artisans using techniques passed down through generations. Lovingly hand-coiled from locally sourced palm leaves—a natural, sustainable material abundant in Morocco—this lidded basket is a testament to the ancestral artistry of the region’s craftspeople.
Each basket begins with the careful harvesting and preparation of palm leaves or doum fibers. Artisans use a traditional spiral braiding method, coiling and stitching the fibers from the center outward in a seamless, tactile pattern. The natural hues, sturdy construction, and gently textured finish make every piece unique, reflecting slight variations that are a hallmark of authentic, hand-crafted Moroccan handicraft. The unique basket shown features precise, alternating bands—a design rooted in Berber culture and prized for its artistry and symbolism.
