This handmade Binga basket, also known as a Tonga basket, is a traditional product from Zimbabwe, where it is used by the Batonga people for winnowing grain. It is round with a square bottom, and has a simple natural and coffee brown pattern. It is approximately 12" in diameter with a brim height of 2.5". Binga baskets are shallow and lightweight, making them easy to mount on a wall. Purchase several in different sizes for a striking African wall basket display.
