What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Baba Tree laundry basket for its exceptional artisanal quality and unique aesthetic appeal.

Know before you buy
Elephant grass is a sturdy, fibrous material native to Ghana, known for its strength and flexibility. When hand-woven, it creates a rigid, long-lasting structure that easily holds the weight of towels or gym gear without losing its shape.
To keep the basket in good condition, simply dust it with a dry cloth as needed. It is important to keep the basket out of direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure can cause the natural dyes in the Ochre and Burgundy fibers to fade.
Yes, the integrated leather handles are designed for durability and comfort. They are securely attached to the woven structure, making it easy to transport the basket between rooms even when it is full.
Absolutely. Because of its elegant design and secure lid, it works well as a storage solution for toys, blankets, or extra linens in a living room or bedroom.
Yes, because each basket is individually crafted by artisans in Ghana, there may be slight variations in the weave or color placement. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the hand-weaving process and ensure your basket is one-of-a-kind.
