Make a sophisticated statement with our Copper & Black Zulu Wire Baskets, handwoven in South Africa by skilled Zulu artisans. Featuring a dramatic black ground woven with warm copper-toned accents, this striking colorway highlights the extraordinary detail and precision of traditional Zulu weaving in a palette that feels modern, elevated, and timeless.

Zulu weavers have taken the intricate designs and exceptional craftsmanship of their traditional natural fiber baskets and reimagined them using durable plastic-coated wire alongside shimmering bare copper wire. The contrast between deep black and metallic copper allows every spiral, line, and woven detail to emerge beautifully, creating pieces that feel almost sculptural.

The restrained two-tone palette makes the Copper & Black collection especially versatile. Large shallow baskets and platters create dramatic wall displays or tabletop centerpieces, while deeper bowls bring artisan texture to a dining table, kitchen island, console, or coffee table. Smaller pieces are perfect for holding everyday essentials or simply displaying as works of functional art.

Style several sizes together for an impactful collected display, or let a single basket stand on its own. The warm copper detailing catches the light beautifully against the black wire, adding subtle dimension without taking away from the incredible craftsmanship of each piece.

Inspired by generations of Zulu basket-making traditions, every basket is woven entirely by hand. Slight variations in pattern, weave, color, and dimensions are part of its authentic artisan character, making each piece truly one of a kind.
