The BaTonga of Zimbabwe and Southern Zambia are famous for their basket weaving skills as well as their geometric designs. The ilala palm is woven into a characteristic square to begin and then radiates outwards to create dramatic patterns that are classic yet modern. The palm fibres are dyed with tree bark, and the baskets are finished with a distinctive herringbone pattern rim.

A basket takes roughly two weeks to complete, and these winnowing baskets are used to separate grain from the chaff, or other debris from the stored grain. In an area prone to drought and poverty, Tonga women are the entrepreneurs of their villages, bringing much-needed additional income to their families.
