Handcrafted by skilled artisans from Bolgatanga, Ghana, this exquisite basket is woven using elephant grass that is both naturally sourced and color-dyed. To maintain its pristine shape, simply dampen the basket in water for a minute and reshape it to eliminate any creases.

Our colorful baskets are the result of the dedicated work of a women’s artisan cooperative in the Bolgatanga region of Northern Ghana. The artisans skillfully weave each basket utilizing Veta Vera grass, a tropical grass that is cultivated in Southern Ghana. The process of creating these baskets begins with the harvesting of the grass, followed by careful storage and transportation to Northern Ghana.

In the weaving process, the dyed elephant grass is twined and carefully crafted into beautiful baskets. Each weaver selectively chooses grass straws to ensure quality and durability, with it taking approximately three days to complete a medium-sized basket. This traditional craft is not only an art form but also plays a crucial role in the local economy, with about 22% of the Bolgatanga population participating in the basket weaving industry.

Our large orange pot basket is not just a decorative item; it's versatile enough to be used as a small space storage bin or as a charming planter basket. This makes it a perfect choice for enhancing your home decor while also providing utility.

Sourced from the local community, this handcrafted art piece highlights the rich cultural heritage of the Bolgatanga district in Ghana. By purchasing this basket, you support local artisans and contribute to the sustainability of their craft.
