Masterfully handcrafted by local artisans in the Bolgatanga region of Ghana, this durable tote features a striking striped design utilizing rich purple and emerald green organic dyes woven into natural elephant grass.

Its unique, winged "U-shape" silhouette offers an extra-wide opening that tapers down to a sturdy, stable base, making it as highly functional as it is beautiful. The basket is finished with dual wrapped goat-skin leather handles, ensuring a comfortable grip and exceptional carrying strength.

  • Material: 100% Sustainable Veta Vera grass (elephant grass) & genuine goat leather handles.

  • Origin: Handmade in Bolgatanga, Ghana.

  • Aesthetic: Bohemian / Eclectic / Global Artisan.

Care & Reshaping Tip:
Natural grass baskets are highly flexible! If your basket gets misshaped during transit or storage, simply wet the grass body thoroughly with cool water (keep the leather handles dry), reshape it manually with your hands, and allow it to dry completely in the sun or a well-ventilated room.
