Palma Collection - Canasta Chica
The palma collection features handmade structured baskets made out of dried and woven palm fronds. Handles are woven into the basket and wrapped around the perimeter. The structured shape and flat bottom allow them to sit upright when not being held. The smaller (chica) size is perfect for quick farmer's market runs, and everyday carrying, and makes a great magazine basket next to the couch.
Dimensions: 15" x 9" x 5" 5.5" handle height
Caminito was born to celebrate the local craft and traditions of Mexico and California. Our name Caminito means small wandering path. For this new chapter we will be directing our focus toward celebrating life’s simple joys. Take the slow road and admire the shapes in the clouds. Lounge on a blanket while sharing laughs and snacks. Cozy up with a good book under one of our warm blankets. Most of all we’d love to have you embrace the time and effort that goes into each of our handcrafted goods.
Born on the border of California and Mexico, we were raised at a cultural crossroads. As a mother and daughter team (Elizabeth and Liz) we collaborate with skilled artisans from our home country of Mexico. The design process starts at our Bay Area studio, taking inspiration from its diverse landscape. Our colorful blankets come straight from a family run business in the heart of an old artisan city in Mexico. We then handcraft our leather straps in our San Diego studio and ship all our goods from there. Each item is created as a tribute to Mexico’s color and craft. Take a stroll, sit back and stay awhile.
