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.
I purchased a basket for each of my adult children and their spouses. They were the highlight of our gift opening. The baskets were beautiful and unique. Ordering from you was a pleasure. Easy to use website and very prompt service. I think Baskets of Africa will be my go-to site for special gifts. Thanks for helping to make our holiday special. Diane
No one else has the variety of baskets that you have accumulated. I did my research. And no one else has the consistent quality. People with baskets of their own come up and talk with me and several of the baskets do not have the double strand twist and those that do, do not have the vibrant dyes. Carrie
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.
