Not your ordinary sticky rice basket
3rd Dec, 2011 at 8:02am
 
Lao people who depend on making sticky rice baskets for a living have skills, but they make the same style of sticky rice every day so this becomes a normal procedure for them.

It takes a much higher skill level and thought to invent a different kind of sticky rice basket, and I will show you what I mean with some pictures below. These sticky rice baskets are made by my relatives.




Sticky rice baskets with words along the side requires time and patience.
Only people who possess exceptional skills can make these.

Notice the round shape that pops out from the outside?
Inside the basket is flat, this is a unique invention that is no easy feat.

Handle on the sticky rice basket.
Little things like this can go along way to making a sale.

This round shaped basket has no lid.
It can be used for anything such as putting fruits in,
or keep goodies for offerings at a Buddhist temple.

I collect sticky rice baskets and I haven't seen some of those styles before. Do they have a store in Vientiane?

They make these styles in Champassak, southern Laos.

I don't think it has made its way to Vientiane yet.
