I just opened the box of Binga baskets I recently ordered. I had to write and say that I am blown away by how gorgeous they are. As your tag notes, I also have never seen ones so beautifully woven. It was a treat to open the box! Josephine
I have received my order just now. I cannot believe it already arrived. I just ordered it a few days ago. I am very amazed how quickly you shipped the order out. I just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I will support your company as much as I can. Thank you again for the best service ever. Keiko
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.
