I love these colors and this pattern. Provia made this from papyrus and sisal. Its about ten inches tall with the base to the beginning of the lid measuring five inches tall. Add some of our hot pads or an apron for a lovely housewarming gift. Perfect for holding your energy bars and other snacks. I keep my dog leashes in mine near the front door. Not only did Provia earn a fair wage for her work, but the money you invest in purchasing this item goes right back to Muko Uganda to help the whole community. SL07
