Bolga baskets take their name from the city of Bolgatanga, where the tradition of basket-weaving is deeply rooted. Initially used for household tasks like harvesting and transporting objects, Bolga baskets quickly grew in popularity thanks to their durability and colorful patterns. Our decorative Bolga baskets are authentic and handwoven by hand by talented craftspeople in the village of Bolgatanga, in Ghana. Baskets can be used as a decorative accent in a room, for easy storage of everyday items, or for displaying your favorite flowers.
