Small basket

Made in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

At the Institute of Khmer Traditional Textile ( http://iktt.esprit-libre.org/en/ ), women weave, men sometimes make baskets and boxes for packagings. This is a small basket, measures only about 14cm in diameter.  I like the economy and unsophisticated design, a simple square of contrasting weaves forming the base of a round rim basket.
