Basket weaving in Southern Italy, particularly in Sicily, Calabria, and Puglia, is a centuries-old tradition deeply tied to the Mediterranean way of life. It showcases a blend of functionality and artistic beauty, often inspired by the region’s natural materials and cultural influences from Greek, Roman, and Arabic heritage. When applied to leather craftsmanship, like on this domed organizer, the weaving technique brings a sense of rustic elegance, durability, and intricate texture.
