Product Description
Winged baskets beautifully display the talent and skill of their weavers in West Africa. Their unique shape offers more storage for your personal items. We honor the culture and heritage of our Artisans and seek to preserve traditional skills and knowledge. The craftspeople that make Ayéya’s goods use traditional methods handed down for generations to create unique designs and styles that appeal to today's consumer. Our Handwoven Grass Baskets are created in in Bolgatanga, Ghana in 12 villages with more than 5,000 women basket weavers, where the Ayéya weavers work independently in a creative process. The weavers craft the baskets in their own homes, and Ayéya collects the baskets once they are completed. This gives the weaver flexibility to work at a pace that is convenient for her, her farm, family, and social community duties.
