Baskets & Storage FAQs

The baskets and storage items listed in this category are predominantly crafted from natural materials, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and functionality. Many of these products are made from straw, wood, willow, and rattan. Some items incorporate a mix of materials for added strength and durability, such as the combination of straw and metal in certain tubs and baskets. Additionally, sea grass, jute, and rush are commonly used for their eco-friendly properties and rustic charm. Each material is selected to ensure that the product is not only functional but also blends seamlessly with various interior decor styles, from rustic to modern minimalism.
Many of the baskets and storage items can be used outdoors, but it's important to consider the materials they are made from. Products like those made from sea grass and straw are generally versatile and resilient enough to withstand outdoor conditions. Nonetheless, prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight could affect their longevity. Products featuring willow, rattan, or wood components like the Basket White Dip w/ Handle S/3 and the Woven Foot Tub S/3 Sq should ideally be kept in covered outdoor areas such as patios or verandas. In contrast, items with specific indoor-use advisories such as those made from paper should be kept indoors to maintain their quality and appearance.
Absolutely, many of the items listed are designed to function beautifully as planters. Products like the Woven Foot Planter S/3 and the Basket Handle Storage/Planter are specifically crafted to accommodate indoor plants. These items often feature a robust design that can support the weight of soil and plants, and some even have integrated handles for easy movement. Additionally, the wicker and natural straw aesthetics enhance the visual appeal of your plants, providing a harmonious blend of nature and decor. For best results, it's advisable to use a waterproof liner or keep the plants in pots before placing them in the basket to prevent moisture from affecting the material longevity.
If you're considering these products for storage, focus on their size, durability, and the type of items you wish to store. Larger baskets like the Basket Wide Ivy S/2 are ideal for storing bulky items such as blankets, toys, or even laundry. For smaller items like jewellery, office supplies, or toiletries, compact options like the Woven Case w/ Sections Nat offer neat compartments to keep everything organized. Durability is another key factor; materials like jute and willow provide robust storage solutions. Additionally, some items come with specific design features like lids or handles, offering added functionality and ease of use.
To maintain the quality and longevity of these baskets and storage items, regular cleaning and appropriate storage are key. For products made from materials such as straw and sea grass, it's best to dust them regularly and wipe them with a slightly damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking these items in water, as that can degrade the natural fibers. For those with wooden components, like the Belly Basket Nat/Wash Beads, mild soap and water can be used, but ensure they are thoroughly dried afterward to prevent mold or mildew. If the items are kept in direct sunlight, consider rotating them periodically to prevent uneven fading. Always follow any specific care instructions provided with the product.
Many of the baskets and storage items can safely store food items, particularly those made from natural materials like sea grass, straw, and rattan. However, it's crucial to ensure these materials are clean and free from any chemicals. Products such as the Storage Tray Triple Nat/White are ideal for storing fruits, vegetables, and even baked goods, thanks to their natural and breathable properties. Nonetheless, it's recommended to use liners or place food in containers before storing them in the baskets to maintain the hygiene of the materials and prevent contamination. Items specifically designed for kitchen use may come with added features that enhance their suitability for food storage.
Yes, many of the products in this category are made from eco-friendly and sustainable materials. Items crafted from straw, sea grass, jute, and willow are particularly noteworthy for their minimal environmental impact. For example, the Basket Handle Storage/Planter and the Hanging Planter S/2 Willow exemplify sustainable craftsmanship. These natural materials are biodegradable and sourced in ways that reduce the carbon footprint. Additionally, the handcrafted nature of these products supports traditional artisanship, ensuring fair labor practices and the preservation of cultural crafting techniques. Choosing these eco-friendly options contributes to sustainable living while adding a natural touch to your home decor.
There are numerous innovative ways to utilize these versatile baskets and storage items. For instance, the Woven Lidded Box S/3 Nat/wash can be used for organizing office supplies, keeping kitchen counters clutter-free, or even as elegant gift boxes. The Basket White Hanging Tub S/3 can serve as unique wall-mounted planters, adding vertical greenery to your spaces. You can use the Belly Basket Pink/Nat Beads not only for storage but also as an attractive picnic basket or beach bag. For interiors, the Basket Soft Jute S/2 can be used to store rolled towels in the bathroom or as a stylish cover for a potted plant. Creativity is the key, and these multifunctional items provide endless possibilities.
Yes, many of the baskets and storage items come in various sizes and colours to suit different needs and aesthetic preferences. Items like the Woven Planter S/3 Storage Wash are available in sets with different sizes to provide versatile storage options. Colours range from natural hues like beige and brown to more vibrant tones like the pink and blue options in the Napkin Holder Wash Pink/Beads. These options ensure that you can find the perfect match for your home decor, whether you prefer a rustic, modern, or minimalist style. The variety in sizes also caters to different storage needs, from holding small accessories to accommodating larger items like blankets and toys.
The handcrafted nature of these items means that each piece is unique, featuring slight variations in size, shape, and colour. This uniqueness is a testament to the skilled artisans who craft each product, making no two pieces exactly alike. While this adds to the charm and character of the items, it also means there might be minor imperfections, which are not considered faults but rather part of the product's authenticity. For instance, items like the Basket Classic S/2 White and the Seagrass Tub Basket S/2 showcase this artisanal quality. Embracing these imperfections ensures the preservation of traditional crafting techniques and supports sustainable practices. Always handle these items with care to maintain their unique beauty and functionality.
