Bold, modern, and inspired by the striking contrast of light and shadow, our Midnight Sun Bukedo & Raffia Bowl features dramatic black and natural fibers woven into a radiant geometric pattern with a deep charcoal center. Handcrafted in Uganda, this fair trade basket brings artisan craftsmanship, bold texture, and contemporary style to gallery walls, tabletops, entryways, and globally inspired home décor.
Each basket is handwoven by skilled Ugandan artisans using sustainably harvested palm raffia wrapped around coils of bukedo (banana leaf stalks). Originally woven for serving food, these versatile baskets have evolved into decorative pieces that work beautifully as wall baskets, fruit bowls, tabletop centerpieces, and shelf accents. Every purchase supports fair trade artisan communities while preserving generations of traditional Ugandan weaving techniques.
Available in Small (12") and Large (16"), the timeless black and natural palette complements modern, minimalist, Scandinavian, bohemian, and global-inspired interiors. Display it individually as a statement piece or combine multiple sizes to create a striking artisan wall arrangement.
Because every basket is handmade, slight variations in color, weave, and pattern are part of its authentic artisan character.
