Bags

We at Onslow Street are so thrilled to bring you these beautiful Bolgatanga "Tehei" handmade in Northern Ghana by the Fra Fra Gurune people. Made from Elephant Grass, a 100% sustainable product which grows in the flood plains around the village.

We source our beautiful basketry from the Fair Trade Collective there.  

This region of Northern Ghana is world renown for its skillful artisans and traditional weaving and leatherwork.  The community are proud of their long practised craft and rely on the income generated by you and and us through every purchase. Subsistent farming is supplemented and families are supported throughout the village. our supporting of these people enables the traditions and skills be continued into the current generation. 

By purchasing this beautiful Tehei basket you are contributing not only financially to these families but also in keeping these beautiful traditions alive.
