These assorted Bolga fans feature wide, handwoven blades with natural straw textures and subtle color accents. Designed to move air efficiently, they are comfortable to hold and easy to use for personal cooling. When not in use, they double as decorative wall pieces that add warmth and visual interest to interior spaces.
The fans originate from the Bolgatanga region in northern Ghana, where basket weaving is a long-established craft tradition. Using the same techniques applied to baskets, artisans adapt the form into functional hand fans suited for hot climates and everyday use. Each fan reflects regional craftsmanship through proportion, balance, and construction rather than ornamentation.
Handwoven from natural elephant grass and finished with wrapped handles for durability and grip, each fan is made individually. Variations in shape, weave pattern, and color placement are expected, as this is an assorted collection rather than a uniform set. These differences confirm the handmade nature of each piece.
Ideal for personal cooling, outdoor events, ceremonies, or decorative display. Keep fans dry and store flat or hang when not in use; clean gently with a dry or lightly damp cloth. As handcrafted items, each fan is unique and selection will vary based on availability.
