Large Antique African Pot | Blakley
A wonderfully unique antique woven African basket. They are the perfect antique home accessory and would look beautiful as a statement piece inside the home.
These antique African pots originate from the Borana people of Ethiopia, a tribe of semi-nomadic herders.
Made from plant fibres and twine using an intricate style of weaving requiring much skill, the pots were then treated with resin or fat to make them waterproof. They would have originally been milk containers and used to serve milk to guests at special occasions, such as weddings and christenings.
Every basket is unique, irregular in shape and in a worn, rustic condition, so please expect vintage imperfections. There may be small holes, dents and repairs that are part of their inherently unique look. We feel these imperfections just add to the character of these unique items.
