Natural-fibre baskets: gentle storage
A basket is storage that decorates. Its natural fibres add warm texture and suit every style.
For every room
In the living room, a large basket holds throws and cushions; in a kids' room, toys; in the bathroom, towels or laundry; in the hallway, shoes and scarves. A basket can also serve as a planter for a large plant, with a waterproof saucer inside.
Materials and makers
Affari of Sweden and Hübsch weave jute and seagrass, Snowdrops Copenhagen offers designs in soft tones, and House Doctor more graphic shapes.
Your questions
How do I care for a natural-fibre basket?
A quick vacuum or a dry brush; avoid prolonged damp, which can warp the fibres.
Can a basket be used as a planter?
Yes, as long as you place a saucer or waterproof container inside.
