I wanted to let you know how satisfied I was with your processing and shipping of my order and with your website. I am very happy with the baskets I received and appreciate the fact that you sent me an accompanying information sheet and that you are a Fair Trade company. Thank you for sourcing and bringing to market these products and supporting the livelihoods of the artisans. Hilary
My highest compliments. What a truly noble endeavor to bring the gorgeous crafts of the people of Africa to grace our lives here in America. I can't describe the feeling of buying something that is made by the hands of people who give, yet who have had so much taken from them. Karim
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.
