Bolga baskets were traditionally woven by Ghanaian women. They can be used to transport goods and other items. These baskets can also be hand-woven using natural materials like grasses, palm leaves, and bamboo strips.
The Ghanaian people have been making baskets out of palm leaves and grasses for generations. Two British missionaries introduced new weaving techniques to help them improve their skills. They could also improve their skills by learning traditional techniques or creating new designs.
This "basket revival" has made the Bolga basket one of Ghana's most beloved handmade baskets. This has also led to a new tradition of weaving that has been passed down from generation to generation. It is now a part of Ghanaian culture.
Bolga Baskets are used for many purposes. These are just a handful:
- These can also be used to create gift baskets or food baskets and even wedding decorations
- Bolgas can be used all year to transport fruits or vegetables. They can also be used to store holiday decorations.
- These baskets are great for the kitchen. You can store potatoes, onions and other items with just a few baskets.
- You can also make your own bolga containers to decorate your home. These baskets can be used to display dried herbs and flowers, but they are also functional.
