A traditional Moroccan basket known as a "tbaq." This basket is handmade using a local dried grass that is wound with colorful wool thread into one-of-a-kind designs. Originally these baskets were used for bread making but nowadays they can be functional or decorative.
Born in 1989 in Beni Tadjite, Radia is a high school graduate. She moved to Talsint when she married her husband, they have two children. Radia has learned how to make baskets and weave through the association. She does not have any other work but does sew clothing for her children. Radia feels that her work as an artisan and the opportunity to work with Anou is big and important because her grandmother was a weaver and made beautiful rugs but sold them for nothing. She now has a chance to change the history for artisans in her family.
