Not only does your order provide the dignity of income to hardworking women but enables us to support the Bolgatanga communities with modern training, quality control and microcredit facilities.

    Traditional & Fair-Trade

    They are Hand Made in small communities, far away from the fashions and retail outlets that so many of us take for granted, people have learned over hundreds of years to be resourceful and creative. And you would be hard-pushed to find a more striking and valued example than the Bolga Basket.

    Designed to work hard and still look beautiful, these baskets are like all the very best inventions - simple yet incredibly effective, both as convenience tools and objects to admire in their own right.

    RESHAPING YOUR BASKET

    1. Dip the basket in cold water for 1 minute. 

    2. Remove from water and let it absorb the moisture for 5 minutes. 

    3. Bend the basket to reshape and allow it to dry.

    WHY CHOOSE BARAKA

    Handcrafted by women in Ghana using age-old techniques passed down through generations. Centuries of practice has taught them how to extract every bit of goodness from the shea nut, and that quality is now passed on in every package of shea butter and all the products made from it.
