These genuine Bolga baskets are exclusively woven by the indigenous Gurune people, around the town of Bolgatanga in Northern 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.
I got them today!! They are all totally gorgeous and I love them. I've got three up on a shelf in my utility room with socks and hats and gloves and stuff in and the two big ones will go on another shelf somewhere else, but they're so nice I'm thinking of all the things I want to do with them and where they could go. They're beautiful, thank you so much! Helen in the UK
Just want to let you know that this is the first time I have ordered from Baskets of Africa. Your service is prompt and courteous. I am impressed!! Thank you! Mary Carol
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.
