The warm, bright colors and bold patterns make this woven basket great for decor, storage, or use on-the-go, and each one makes an incredible impact. Women weavers in the Bolgatanga region of Ghana are earning a sustainable income as they craft each distinctive elephant grass basket using traditional techniques, patterns, and colors. Size, shape, and color vary due to handmade quality. Dimensions: 12"h x 16"dia

In order to comply with our quality standards, most leather on this basket has been removed.



Reshaping Your Bolgatanga Basket: Our artisan partners fold this basket in order to ship more efficiently. To remove creases and restore its shape, dampen basket with a spray bottle or other water source, or by submerging in water for 1 minute. Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow grass to absorb the moisture and become pliable. Bend and press the basket into shape - don't worry, it won't break. Allow it to air dry before use and enjoy your beautiful handwoven basket from Ghana!

Beautiful basket but...
May 8, 2023  |  By Michele Lauer-Bader
I have had the basket just about 5 weeks. It has been sitting on the floor with a few magazines inside. I love the colors and the size but just noticed that the cord wrapped around the handle has started to come undone. I have hardly touched it so I know it wasn't due to too much lifting with too much weight in it. I will continue to use it and try to glue it down but this was disappointing considering that I have not had the basket that long.
