Deluxe African Baskets from Africa Heartwood Project are like each Ghanaian artisan herself – unique, beautiful, and strong. The co-ops of women we network with in Bolgatanga, Northern Ghana create a wide selection of Bolga baskets of all sizes, shapes, and color patterns, useful for a variety of purposes. Each one is meticulously hand-woven of dried elephant grass using traditional methods passed on from generation to generation. In a world of disappearing traditions and mass-produced plastic good, we love that every basket contributes to the sustainable livelihoods of each basket maker’s family while keeping the ancient weaving traditions alive, and adding beauty and culture to lives and homes around the world.
