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.

It is my dream to help crafts women in Africa through the use of commerce of their goods. I love the hand work and it touches a part of me. I admire what you are doing. Vanessa
I ordered an Easter basket for my granddaughter; I was so happy when it arrived that I came back to order 3 more baskets! Valerie
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.
