These genuine Bolga baskets are exclusively woven by the indigenous Gurune people around the town of Bolgatanga in Northern Ghana. These baskets in particular were woven from undyed grass.
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.
Our baskets arrived in Melbourne, Australia, today, much quicker than we expected! Perfect condition; exactly as pictured. Thank you. I will recommend this site. Victoria
Everyone likes the baskets, so I keep 2 or 3 around my office to give as gifts to clients. Roger
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.
