ARE YOU A TRADE PROFESSIONAL?

Stunning BUBUNE is a traditional Ghanaian bolga basket, sporting beautiful shades of turquoise and orange in an intricate tribal pattern. This market basket is truly one-of-a-kind: you won’t find another like this, so once it’s gone, it’s gone! BUBUNE is the perfect shopping or picnic companion and can be put to use all over the home. Fill yours with hats and gloves, rugs and throws, bathroom accessories - or toys!

Each one of these unique shopping baskets takes up to three days to weave by hand, using veta vera grass which produces baskets of excellent structural balance and durability. This particular basket comes with the added ethical credentials of being 100% vegan, with no leather detailing as seen on other baskets in this collection. This indigenous grass is hand-picked from the tip, hand-rolled, and dyed in boiling water before being woven by a skilled member of the basket room's partner weaving cooperative in Northern Ghana.

Agricultural work is the mainstay of most of these Ghanaian weavers’ incomes, but the pervasive dry season makes it increasingly difficult for families to meet school fees and medical bills. Basket weaving brings the opportunity to earn a flexible and valuable second income. Each market basket comes with some information about the weaving cooperative that made yours. Want to know more about the Ghanaian weavers?

  • Material: VETA VERA GRASS

  • Dimensions: 41cm Dia x 26cm H / 16" Dia x 10" H (diameter is measured at the widest part of the basket)
