They are woven from natural elephant grass and plant-based traditional dyes and are mostly celebrated for their unique craftsmanship, vibrant colors, exceptional durability, and sustainable qualities. Bolga baskets are exclusive to the Bolgatanga region of Ghana, and skilled artisans of the region use traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations to create each exquisite basket, thereby preserving the traditional art form. The creation of Bolga baskets is not just a mere pastime for the indigenous people of rural Bolgatanga; the production of Bolga baskets provides a vital source of income for many local families. This craft has a significant economic impact on the region, supporting the livelihoods of numerous households.

Lovely basket, perfect for holding floor mats!

Well made, excellent basket. We really love it.

Nice large basket. Quick delivery and good communication. Should work well for laundry (its intended purpose). Sadly, my housemates have already claimed the basket as their own.
