Can I just say that I love the selection on your website, and I have looked at the website a few times before this order - my first order but not my last. Rebecca
I’ve been buying these baskets for years now and have a large, wonderful collection. These baskets and canisters are truly magnificent and of more and more excellent, colorful and sophisticated design. They add immensely to any home, whether on the floor, a table, a shelf or on the wall. Having been to these regions In Africa, I can attest to the superb quality of Baskets of Africa. And to the importance of the undertaking this company is doing. Kudos. Nora
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.
