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. These baskets in particular were woven from undyed grass.

I received my 3 beautiful Ugandan baskets a couple of days ago, and I am very happy with my purchases. Thank you also for the information sheets that tell a little more about where they are from and how they are made. I appreciate your prompt and courteous customer service. Alice
Looking forward to these beautiful weavings. I've bought pretty bowls and plates from you before, and they are all lovely. Melanie
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.
