“Ginormous” Large Bolga Baskets 15-16”

These beautiful baskets are very useful for storage of craft projects, throws, toys and all manner of things. They are at least  30cms deep and at least 40cms in diameter and come in lots of different colourways.

They are made by hand by a group of weavers in Bolgatanga, Northern Ghana. The grasses used to weave them grow wild and are gathered, prepared and naturally dyed by members of the group, ready to be woven into a unique, biodegradable piece. The women deal with their finances themselves, so are treated fairly. They also receive a large premium to be spent on community projects of their choice.

Every one is slightly different and may be supplied squashed (as it arrived from Ghana) depending on delivery requirements. They are easy to reshape following the instructions which will be included.
