Handwoven Bolga Straw Fans from Ghana

Each fan is a one-of-a-kind work of art, hand-woven by skilled artisans in the villages of Bolga, Ghana using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Crafted from sustainably harvested elephant grass and banana leaf — renewable resources that grow abundantly in the region — these fans are as eco-conscious as they are beautiful.

The leather handle is finished using an all-natural process, either dyed and oiled or hand-painted for a rich, organic feel. No two fans are identical; color schemes, patterns, and character vary from piece to piece. Variations are not imperfections — they are the signature of the human hands that made them.

Approximately 10–12 inches from top to bottom. Display as wall art, use as a functional fan, or gift as a meaningful, story-rich piece.
