This pagoda-shaped basket - so unique to Rwanda that it is included on the national seal - has been woven for centuries. Historically given as a wedding gift, the Day Peace Basket is hand-crafted from enzyme-washed papyrus and banana leaf. The zigzag design tells an ancient story of friends walking together, visiting neighboring villages along the way. The Day basket makes a lovely companion to the darker color of Rwanda Night Peace Basket.
