A legacy of Brazil's native inhabitants (who still make some of the most gorgeous baskets in the country, see left and last photo below), basketry is very much practiced all over; palm fronds and grasses are woven, crocheted, dyed, made into wonderful rugs, placemats, baskets, tablecloths, sandals, you name it! Here are some examples from the states of Ceará, Maranhão, Tocantins (the "golden grass" pieces above), and Piauí (the rug).
