Coiled baskets

Coiled baskets are baskets crafted by winding and stacking flexible materials like grasses, reeds, or rattan in a continuous spiral or coil. Artisans secure each coil with stitches or bindings, creating durable, sturdy containers. This technique is traditional in many cultures due to its simplicity and strength, allowing for various shapes and sizes. Coiled baskets are used for gathering, storing, or carrying items, and their construction offers flexibility, strength, and an attractive, handcrafted appearance. The method highlights skilled craftsmanship and often holds cultural or ceremonial significance.
