Gone Rural Baguette Basket white trim - Large: 42cm length. Small: 32cm length. "Lutindzi is the original material that inspired Gone Rural's products. Sourced from the mountains of Eswatini, the grass can be dyed a variety of colours and woven into a range of shapes and designs. It is sustainably harvested by cutting above the root and is proven to be waterproof and stain-resistant due to its strong, waxy finish. Sisal, a regenerating weed from the Lavumisa area of Swaziland, provides a fine fibre that can be dyed a spectrum of bright and light colours. Both fibres are dyed using environmentally friendly German dyes imported from South Africa."
