Bolga basket/shopping bag, butterfly shaped, small, striped

Cute, hand-woven basket from Bolgatanga (Ghana) made from elephant grass with a round leather handle. Also fun as a handbag or for small items, toys Bolga baskets are woven by women who can earn their own income this way.

Tip! If your basket has deformed, you can get it back to its original shape by wetting it, re-shaping it and then allowing it to dry.
