MADE IN GHANA
This woven bag is handmade by fair trade artisans in the Bolgatanga region of Ghana using thick, tough elephant grass dyed in an array of colors. These Bolga baskets stand up to use over time and remain functional and beautiful for years. From start to finish, the process of making a single Bolga Basket can take an entire week. Each purchase helps empower and support the weavers and promotes sustainable methods of production.
PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO THE HANDCRAFTED NATURE OF THESE BASKETS, EACH ONE MAY VARY SLIGHTLY IN SIZE AND DESIGN. No two are exactly alike, making your Ghana Shopper one of a kind.

Smooth the bag to your desired shape. Shake out any excess water, and then place the item in a warm place to dry. We recommend not placing wet items on a surface where dye transfer might occur. This process can be repeated as often as needed. Be ready to enjoy your bag for a long time!
