These baskets are unusual because they are woven from the top down, rather than from the bottom up.

Since wire baskets are woven by many men due to the difficult nature of weaving wire, they are able to stay home on their tribal lands instead of moving to cities to look for work. In the rural groups we work with, the family units are preserved so that the weavers and their families can live more traditional lifestyles.
Lovely baskets, very sturdy and well done. Glad it contributes to the well-being of the makers. This is my third Ghana basket...they are wonderful and colorful and most hardy. Barbara
I saw a woman at the shopping center today with one of your baskets. I couldn't take my eyes off of it - it was so beautiful. She directed me to look up Baskets of Africa and I'm so thankful that you have such a beautiful site! They are so incredibly gorgeous. With the deepest of thanks to the Amazingly Talented and Beautiful hands that made my baskets!!!! Sherri
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.
