Artisans weave baskets using Veta Vera grass, a tropical grass grown in Southern Ghana. The grass is harvested, stored, and transported from Southern Ghana to Northern Ghana. Elephant grass is dyed, dried, twined, and woven into a basket. Grass straws are carefully selected by the weaver before weaving. It takes 3 days to weave a medium size basket. These baskets are exclusively woven in the Bolgatanga region in Northern Ghana. Basket weaving is a major contributor to the Bolgatanga economy. Around 22% of their population is involved in weaving baskets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Basket Weaving Artisans of Bolgatanga, Ghana.","offers":[{"title":"Navy Blue","offer_id":52014601306414,"sku":"FRBOL0003-A","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Olive Green","offer_id":52014601339182,"sku":"FRBOL0068-A","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Crimson Red","offer_id":52014601371950,"sku":"FRBOL0067-A","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/2783\/9534\/files\/Navy_PotBasket_Large_Photo.jpg?v=1777919795","url":"https:\/\/artisanvariety.com\/products\/african-wicker-basket-checkered-16-inch-wide","provider":"Artisan Variety","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
