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.
My order of three amazingly beautiful, well-crafted baskets arrived today! They are surely fine craftsmanship, I am thrilled. Also wanted to thank you for sending out my order so promptly! In a matter of just a few days from ordering, and WOW! I am a very pleased customer, who will absolutely be back, thank you. Laura
The handle is strong, the walls are smooth so that if you do use it for yarn and knitting related tools, you don't have to worry about snags. I'll be buying more!! Donna
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.
