Basket weaving is one of the oldest forms of artistry across the African continent — passed down through generations, taught by mothers and grandmothers under the shade of trees or in communal weaving circles.
Our artisan baskets come from small communities in Ghana and Uganda, where skilled women use elephant grass, raffia, and natural dyes to handcraft each piece. Whether mini, medium, or large, these baskets serve both beauty and function — ideal for storage, decor, or gifting.
Each woven loop tells a story of resilience, culture, and care. By purchasing a basket from Artisan International, you're preserving a centuries-old tradition while directly supporting the hands that keep it alive.
