PLEASE READ: These products are handmade and although we strive to make them identical, there may be very slight differences between them.
Our woven baskets, shades, and fans from Ghana, are made by a talented group of artisans based in the Upper East Region, under the Burkina Fasso border. The baskets are made with indigenous Veta Vera grass which grows abundantly in this hot, dry area.
The co-operative we have partnered with is led by Agana who works closely with the weavers.

Sizing:
Base Diameter 28cm / Height 25cm
Your light shade may arrive folded or slightly out of shape. If this occurs, use a steamer or steam setting on your iron. Steam the light shade and manually shape. This is a quick and easy process. Please be careful as the straw may be hot.
To clean your Ghanaian light shade, simply wipe clean with a damp cloth or sponge, remove most of the moisture with a dry towel and leave to air dry naturally.
Avoid placing your light shade in direct sunlight as this may cause some of the colours to fade.
