Everyone likes the baskets, so I keep 2 or 3 around my office to give as gifts to clients. Roger
I just want to tell you that the beautiful basket I just received is perfect in every way! I've passed a link to your website on to the buyer of African baskets at my local natural food store. The option you offer for cloth handle baskets is unique and so welcome to us vegans. Can't wait to go to market with this treasure on my arm ;) Carolyn
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.
