Practical as well as beautiful, our Planter/Storage Baskets are made to be used!
Our pot purses are a great option for carrying your essentials in style.
Each Ansah Co. basket is handwoven with Kinkahe straw (also known as Elephant Grass) by talented weavers in Bolgatanga, a northern region of Ghana. Made using techniques that have been perfected over generations, our baskets are durable and flexible; each handle is covered with goatskin leather to make it stronger and more comfortable to carry.
Apart from the leather strap, our pot purses are 100% biodegradable as well as ethically sourced and made. Ansah Co. strongly believes in a system where all are paid fairly; we work directly with artisans in Bolgatanga to ensure they receive a fair and living wage.
This basket arrives folded from shipping, but don’t worry - it can quickly be reshaped using water and your bare hands. Detailed instructions on how to reshape your Ansah Co. basket will be included with your order.
Due to the handmade nature of this product, each one is unique.
