Weaving Bolga Baskets in 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.
These genuine Bolga baskets are exclusively woven by the indigenous Gurune people, around the town of Bolgatanga in Northern Ghana.

I got my baskets today safely. They’re amazing! Many thanks. Maria
I want you to know that the basket just arrived in perfect shape. Delivery company was great as were the fellows who brought it into the house. It came through the front door without a hitch. I am ecstatic to have it. Thank you for being so conscientious and caring about the delivery. It's such a special piece in our lives. It's just so hard to believe it's here with us - amazing. Peggy
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.
