Beautifully simple, the BULI bicycle basket is an exquisite bike accessory. Designed in-house by The Basket Room, this unique woven creation can be attached to the front of your bike or to the rear as a chic pannier.

The perfect basket for picking up flowers at the local market and days out pedalling through the countryside, our woven bicycle baskets are roomy enough inside to store books and stationery, a picnic blanket and lunch, or your gym kit and trainers. The BULI can also be secured to stairway bannisters, bathroom towel rails and cots as an aesthetic storage basket. Each bike basket is a work of art - taking up to three days to weave by hand - and is made from an indigenous crop known colloquially as ‘elephant grass’. This indigenous grass is hand-rolled and dyed in boiling water before being woven by a skilled member of our partner weaving cooperative in Northern Ghana.

The majority of weavers in the Northern Ghana cooperative are arable and livestock farmers. Basket weaving - a skill passed along the generations in many families – has become a source of alternative income for these communities during the dry seasons, helping families to meet their basic living costs. To own one of our woven baskets is to become a part of this legacy.

Each bicycle basket comes with a thank you card from the weaving co-operative that made yours. Want to know more about the people behind the baskets? Meet the weavers .
