ARE YOU A TRADE PROFESSIONAL?

The Basket Room's smart YOA square storage baskets sport Black & Natural against a natural undyed grass base. These stylish and robust storage baskets are hand woven in Northern Ghana and look superb all over the home.

Bring a little order to the living room and use yours for stacking kindling or magazines. They are the perfect fit for popular cube storage shelving! In the bathroom, use your YOA baskets for storing toiletries, towels and loo rolls. Mix & match with The Basket Room's other square designs!

Each woven storage basket takes up to three days to complete, and is made from an indigenous Ghanaian grass called veta vera. The process is time-consuming: before weaving can begin the grass must be collected and split by hand, then hand-rolled and dyed. Only then can a weaver from The Basket Room's partner weaving cooperative begin her skilful work. These one of a kind baskets are handmade by the most talented weaving groups in Ghana, the weavers have complete creative freedom resulting in exquisite designs that are only ever made once.

 

Most of the weavers in the Northern Ghana cooperative are agricultural workers, though relying on a season’s rainfall for income makes for unstable living. Basket weaving – one of the oldest crafts known to man – has become a source of alternative income for these communities, particularly in the dry seasons. This additional channel of work helps families to meet their basic living costs. To purchase one of The Basket Room's woven baskets is to become an important part of The Basket Room's journey: supporting the weavers in a truly fair and sustainable trade. Every woven basket comes with a thank you card from the co-operative that made yours. 

Material: VETA VERA GRASS Dimensions: Approx. 33cm L x 33cm W x 30cm H / 13" L x 13" W x 12" H
