Small Colorful Woven Ethiopian Basket w/Lid (2pcs)

Description

This is a beautiful Handcrafted Moudai Ethiopian Woven Basket .   It measures approximately 3 1/2" tall including the lid.  It is 5 1/4" long and 3 3/4" wide.   The lid fits tightly into the basket.  It is beige with green and red.   It is in very good condition but shows normal wear. There is a curved edge on the inside of the basket.  It appears to help secure the lid to the basket but not sure if it was made that way or damaged.  It does not affect the performance of the lid/basket.   A lovely collectible basket.
Ethiopians have produced beautiful baskets for many years.  This type of basket is called moudai and was used for dry foods such as bread as well as for personal items. It is made of woven straw.
