Handmade with love, these woven baskets store anything and everything. Some of our favorite uses are for laundry, toys, linens, plants, or even kitchen supplies and garden gear! This beautiful basket set provides critical fair trade income for women who face difficulty finding individuals to purchase their baskets locally. The artisans use traditional coil-style weaving techniques that have been passed down for generations.

Meet the Artisans

Our baskets and hampers are handmade by the loving hands of global village artisans. These Senegalese baskets are made with age-old weaving techniques passed down from generation to generation. It takes the women two days to finish a single large hamper. They work from home, usually weaving under mango trees in the late afternoon and evening.

Once the basket is finished the men in the village help with transportation and packing. It then travels 6,347 miles to us where it's packaged up and sent off to its new home. The entire process allows our artisans to extend their market from local to global, allowing them the opportunity for independence and empowerment. Thank you for supporting their work and allowing their traditions to be passed down through families and into the global marketplace. Together we are helping individuals in one of the world's least developed countries provide for their families with healthy working conditions and a path to economic independence.


Our products will have slight variations in design and size, this is a natural occurrence in handmade goods and one of the many reasons we love them so.

No two designs will be exactly alike, giving you a lasting one-of-a-kind product to treasure for years to come.

If you are looking for specific dimensions on a product, please contact us so we can assist in finding the right fit.

I just received my second order, and I cannot express how happy I am with it. I ordered the long and the short brass wall sconces, candles, and the breathtaking votive candle chandelier. Everything came packaged very nicely and arrived in perfect condition.

My experience with Connected Goods has been nothing short of exceptional. Having had the pleasure of exploring a variety of their homewares and collections, I wholeheartedly recommend purchasing from them. The glassware, walnut utensils, and table linens have been standout favorites for me. The glassware, in particular, is unique and seamlessly complements a variety of tastes. The attention to detail and quality craftsmanship evident in each piece make them a delightful addition to any home. I cannot recommend Connected Goods enough for their curated selection and commitment to offering products that not only meet but exceed expectations. Whether for personal use or as thoughtful gifts, their homewares consistently add a touch of elegance and functionality to any space.

My infant daughter recently spent some time in the ICU and her kantha baby blanket was one of the only things of hers from home that we had with us. It was a source of comfort and kept her warm and swaddled her over the cords for her entire stay. We love Connected Goods and these blankets specifically.

Connected Goods is truly a personal, Family-Feeling Company. From beginning to the end of a transaction, and everything in between, Connect Goods Customer Service representatives are accessible, friendly, flexible and, most importantly, kind and understanding. I highly respect their business model of putting both their crafts-people and customers first and foremost, as well as going the extra mile to assure customer satisfaction, and feel-good future purchasing experiences.
