The Rwanda Path to Peace Collection
These one of a kind works of art are hand-woven by the women of
Rwanda.
A beautiful blend of old and new, the Path to Peace Collection offers tra-
ditional baskets like those woven for centuries in Rwanda, and more mod-
ern pieces that masterfully mix functional shapes with vivid color and
meaningful designs.
Available only at macys.com through a unique partnership focused on
trade instead of aid, the sale of these baskets puts real, sustainable income
into the hands of the artisans who create them, changing their lives in
remarkable ways.
In 2005, Macy's introduced the very first Path to Peace Baskets. The Weaving arket tote rolled
modest collection included every basket the weavers could produce over the
course of the year.
Today the path to peace project is larger than ever, employing thousands
of weavers and impacting tens of thousands of lives.
