Zuba Woven Bowls - Black Medium
The Local + Lejos Zuba Bowl is appropriately named after the Kinyarwanda word for sun. Local + Lejos Collection color tones will bring a crisp pop and ray of light into your home. We've designed the Zubita Woven Bowl as a sunny companion to the Zuba.
All of our woven bowls are created from dyed natural sisal fibers woven over a core of forest grasses. The weavers begin in the middle of the bowl, carefully threading the sisal around and around to create this beautiful design. The tea color is created when the naturally-white sisal fibers are steeped in Rwandan-grown tea leaves!
- Each woven bowl has a loop on the back for hanging
- Medium bowl: 12″ diameter
- Artisans work 3 days to weave a medium bowl
- Care: Wipe with a damp cloth
