The Secrets of Moroccan Basketry

Basketry is an ancient Berber craft, long the exclusive preserve of women, which requires patience and skilled hands. In the Moroccan countryside, palm leaves are used in the making of woven objects for domestic or farm use including baskets, trivets and hats.

Traditional woven straw hats can be considered handmade works of art – and they’re invaluable as protection from the strong Moroccan sun. Together with a local expert you’ll discover the secrets of this ancient craft, including personalising your hat with the colours of your choice.
