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.

Thank you for all that you do for so many people. Those who weave the baskets earn money, while the rest of us are blessed with beautiful baskets! Jeanette
Thank you!!! I have one of these beautiful baskets and wherever I carry it people tell me how cool it is and ask where I got it. I tell them. I hope they are all buying them from you!!! Maggie
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.
