No, each piece is handcrafted by artisans in Rwanda, meaning there will be slight variations in the geometric pattern and weave. These unique differences are a hallmark of the traditional craft process.
Yes, the raffia construction is durable and firm. It is well-suited for displaying items like candles, books, or small vases, though it is primarily designed for decorative use rather than heavy-duty storage.
