Weaving Bolga Baskets in Ghana
For many generations, weaving has been a traditional skill of the Gurune people of northern Ghana. Mostly done by women, basket weaving and other handicrafts supplement these subsistence farmers’ incomes.
These genuine Bolga baskets are exclusively woven by the indigenous Gurune people around the town of Bolgatanga in Northern Ghana.

The baskets are absolutely gorgeous. You have raised the bar. This is the new standard! Katie
The basket that I ordered for my daughter's Christmas present arrived yesterday. It is beautiful, the colors are so perfect, and they look just like the picture. The basket is sturdy, and the handles are very well made. Thank you so much! Marteil
All of our African baskets are verified Fair Trade, because we believe that indigenous people around the world should be compensated fairly for their amazing work.
