Thank you for purchasing this bolga basket from Ghana, West Africa. It is made of elephant grass and has a goat skin handle. This working basket is very flexible and durable. You can wash it using plain water. If it becomes misshapen, submerge it in water for 10 seconds and re-shape using your hands.

Most importantly, this is a FAIR TRADE basket. This means that it was purchased directly from the weaver at a fair price--one that will help her to improve her life and the lives of her children. You can feel good about the purchase of this bolga basket. You get a great basket, and you are helping a woman in a third world country to survive and to thrive.
