My baskets arrived today, and I love them!!! The pink one is a gift for my daughter. She was adopted from South Africa, and she loved this basket when she saw it on my computer. I am a blogger and I will take some nice photos and post them on my blog with a link to your site. Natacha
I just got my baskets today and I'm very pleased. Great site, service, and experience. Dylan
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.
