Product Story

The Large Tule Basket with Handles is the perfect mid-sized laundry basket, but really we think it can be used for just about anything: story toys, blankets, knick-knacks. Tule is a reed fiber used by artisans in the Jocotán region for generations, producing a sturdy structure for basketry and rugs, alike.

Made by Tule Weavers in Jocotán, Guatemala

In Jocotán, located in the Chiquimula department of Guatemala, we are working with a group of women who weave with the fiber tule. Tule is a brush fiber that is quite strong and creates basketry and rugs that are sturdy.

About these artisans

This artisan group was recently formed and has already grown to 35 women. They are led by a well-known school teacher in the area. We're excited to expand our collaboration with them in the coming years.
