I must tell you how pleased I am with my market basket. The size is perfect, and the colors are true and it's sturdy! I'm gonna buy another basket! Nedra
I am very pleased with your service. I especially like the information pages on how the baskets are made. I find the packaging in a sturdy box, very well done, and the delivery prompt. The baskets themselves are just BEAUTIFUL - I've purchased several for gifts and for myself over the past 10 months. I find the value excellent and appreciate your wide selection. MANY THANKS!! Mary
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.
