Inspired by the legendary Ghanaian folklore of Kwaku Anansi, the charismatic spider renowned for his cleverness and resourcefulness, the Anansi’s Web Basket is a tribute to storytelling, heritage, and connection. This intricate piece embodies the spirit of Anansi’s enduring web, reimagined as a symbol of resilience and the journey of African descendants returning to their ancestral lands.
Woven Worldwide views Anansi’s Web as more than a design—it’s a narrative. It represents the repatriation of African peoples seeking identity, belonging, and answers after centuries of displacement caused by the Transatlantic Slave Trade. When Black people visit Ghana, often called the center of the world’s "web," they reconnect with an ancient culture, finding themselves embraced by its warmth and authenticity.
Crafted with titan-level artistry, the Anansi’s Web Basket features curvy, tactile, and low-slung waves, embodying the mastery of Ghana’s artisan matriarchs. Each piece reflects a profound commitment to sustainable craftsmanship and timeless design, elevating your home décor while supporting cultural preservation.
Materials
Our elephant grass is a robust, renewable, tri-tone, tropical-scented straw indigenous to Ghana's Bolgatanga region, gathered and firmly planted by streams of living water. Each reed that is meticulously intertwined into the next depicts one human crossing Ghana and life's loom in quest of true origins and connecting with others through travel, thereby expanding their web of community.
Colors: Indigo, Hibiscus, Jade
Dimensions: 40-inch diameter
The Anansi’s Web Basket is not just a home accessory—it’s a story woven into a work of art. Bring this exceptional piece into your space and connect with a legacy of culture, artistry, and purpose.

Care
Your Woven Worldwide item will maintain its handcrafted qualities if it is not directly exposed to damp or wet environments. Repeated contact with water will cause the appearance of the reed in the woven product (whether it is in its authentic reed or pigmented) to experience discolouration. Prolonged pressure from heavy objects will cause the shape of the product to be distorted. It is best to limit the exposure of such elements to preserve the authentic look and feel of your product.
When using cosmetics, perfumes or any alcohol-based solutions such as hand sanitizers, please take time to be sure that they are dry on your skin before engaging with Woven Worldwide products.
There are sometimes tone variations in the colour of the reed and this is a natural feature due to when the grass was harvested. The basket's new home will most likely be in a climate other than the one in which it was made. The reed's tri-tone nature may appear in tones ranging from pale green to mustard to raw honey, which may age as it oxidizes in it's new home. This is also determined by the date the grass was harvested. This is a normal maturation process for straw; it is not a flaw or blemish.
For any further questions, we invite you to send us an email, where our team will be delighted to assist you with your questions.

FAQs
General Enquiries
Throughout the year, Woven Worldwide introduces new product lines. Each product is designed and crafted with eternal durability in mind, and is produced in small batches.
Will the grass look exactly like it does on your website?
Due to the natural characteristics of elephant grass, each woven basket may have a slight variation in reed colour. This is determined by when the grass was harvested, woven, and how long it dried in the sun. The natural reed gradient ranges from pale green to beige to mustard yellow. This gradient is a beautiful natural feature that should be admired.
