These baskets are so beautiful – a fine art indeed. The weavers are highly skilled. It’s appalling that tourists haggle and pay so little. Due to circumstances I had to buy mine at Maun airport – and they were very expensive. I am certain my money did not go back to the talented maker 🙁
I love my baskets (I have four) and they are a reminder of a wonderful visit to beautiful Botswana and the kind and friendly people.
Local retailers need to pay the weavers fairly.
Kind regards
