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.

I received my order yesterday - great service. The baskets are truly a work of art & will proudly be displayed on my dining room wall. Please extend my appreciation to the artists. Diane
I wanted to send a quick note to express my love & appreciation for Baskets of Africa! For my birthday this past week, my daughter purchased a Ghana basket for me. Not only was I thrilled with it's beauty & workmanship, but also by the cause it supports. Kudos to Baskets of Africa and it's mission to prevent poverty through the economic development of African basket weavers! Keep up the great work! Ruth
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.
