Only a handful of weavers in Bolgatanga can weave this size and pattern combination, a continuous wave running through a rounded, narrow-necked pot shape.

FAQs

What is a wave pot basket?
A Wave Pot Basket combines the rippling wave pattern from the Wave Basket with the tapered, rounded shape of the Bolga Pot Basket, at a much larger scale than either.
One weaver coils and shapes the entire piece by hand, carrying the wave through a taller, fuller body than anything else in the Bolga range.
It’s the largest and most complex piece, impressive both in scale and in the wave pattern carried through it.

How can I style a Wave Pot Basket?
Place it directly on the floor as a stand-alone piece, or use it to hold dried stems and pampas.
Its scale suits a corner, beside furniture, or as its own centrepiece.

Can I put fresh flowers in my Wave Pot Basket?
It isn’t recommended.
The weave isn’t sealed, so it won’t hold water directly. Left empty, the striking wave pattern carries the piece on its own. Dried stems or pampas work well too.
