Oval baskets have two handles for convenience and security. Straighter sides and deeper allows for a variety of uses, including shopping, book bag, crafts, beach bag, picnics, etc...

Alaffia Fair Trade Grass Baskets are hand-woven in Central Togo from native, wild-harvested savanna grasses. Our baskets are beneficial to our communities in Africa as a source of income and, more importantly, a way of preserving our indigenous knowledge. These baskets are fair trade certified by GiFFT.

Our baskets also benefit your community. An estimated 500 billion to a trillion plastic bags are consumed worldwide each year, and Americans use one plastic bag per person per day. Our baskets are strong, reusable and biodegradable, and are a sustainable alternative to plastic shopping bags that are filling land-fills.

Purchasing our baskets helps us reach our goals of economic empowerment, gender equality and preserving indigenous knowledge.
