Description
The Golba Refresh basket is a multi-purpose storage container. It can be used to store fruits - fresh or dried, vegetables, clothing, clothing accessories and more up to a maximum weight of 15kg. It's woven using elephant grass from North African grasslands. This material holds vibrant colours that artisans use to create decorative yet durable pieces using traditional weaving techniques from Ghana villages. We've worked with Partner Africa to ensure working conditions are fair. This allows the artisans in the villages to sustain their weaving businesses and teach the women weavers many life skills. In the event that this basket loses its original shape owing to packing or other reasons, please follow the actions below to reshape it: Spray or sprinkle the affected parts of the basket with ordinary water Push out with your fist the sprayed areas, from inside the basket, to the original shape Leave the reshaped basket to dry

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
