Thank you so much for your helpful reply. The baskets arrived in Australia around the 3 week mark. I'm delighted with the quality and can't wait to shop again with you! What beautiful handiwork. Carrie
I've fallen in love with at least 6-7 baskets to carry my wallet, keys, etc - and I like to decorate our home with trays and large sets of baskets on the floor. Of course, my friends are all very envious of our home and I thank you so much for all the beauty you have brought into my life! Lesley
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.
