The Basket Room - Akoo bike basket
Add a touch of Ghanaian colour to your bike
A beautifully hand woven bike basket, designed in house by The Basket Room.
Each basket is woven by a weaving cooperative in Northern Ghana from wild veta vera grass, each bike basket takes around three days to weave once this grass is split, rolled by hand, and dyed in boiling water.
Material: VETA VERA GRASS & LEATHER
Aprox Dimensions: W35cm x D25cm x H25cm (baskets can vary in size slightly due to being handmade)
Each bike basket is supplied with two dark brown leather straps, as seen in photo. These simply slot through the basket and fasten around your handlebars.
When we found these beautiful bright baskets, we just had to try them, and we love that each one is unique and handmade, supporting this trade in Ghana. Each hand woven basket tells an important story about collaboration and sustainable living.
By purchasing any of The Basket Room hand-woven baskets you become part of this narrative, directly supporting the weavers in becoming less dependent on the unpredictable nature of self-sufficiency farming.
Each bicycle basket comes with a thank you card from the weaving co-operative that made yours. Want to know more about the people behind the baskets? Meet the weavers here.
