Main material: Banana fiber

Banana fibers are the fibers from the layered stems of cultivated banana trees. The intense brown color develops naturally when the fibers are dried in the sun for about a week. The individual strips are then rolled into the characteristic strands, approximately 6 mm thick. Only old, dying banana plants are used for this material. This allows these plants a second life as a dimensionally stable and robust raw material for many handcrafted baskets.

Other materials: cotton, nylon thread
