African Telephone Wire Bowl Zulu Basket White Black Yellow Swirl, handcrafted in Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa. Zulu bowls, pots and baskets were traditionally crafted of clay, Ilala palm grass and other natural materials.

In addition to the bowls and plates woven by hand, the telephone wire is used to cover bottles, weapons, cutlery, as well as making jewelry and any other artistic manner the Zulu people find, as they put art in every part of their life.
