Know before you buy
Because the basket is woven from natural veta vera grass, you can gently dampen the material with water to make it pliable. Once moistened, simply mold the basket back into your desired shape and allow it to air dry completely.
Yes, the veta vera grass is durable and the basket is designed to be washable. However, ensure it is placed in a well-ventilated area to prevent moisture buildup within the fibers over time.
Each basket is handcrafted and features an assortment of vibrant, locally sourced dyes. Because of the artisanal nature of the weaving process, the specific color patterns and distribution will vary, making every piece unique.
You can clean the basket by gently wiping it down with a damp cloth or rinsing it with water. Always ensure the basket is thoroughly air-dried before using it to store items to maintain the integrity of the grass.
The basket is sturdy enough for everyday essentials like towels, kitchen supplies, or toiletries. While it is durable, it is best suited for lightweight to medium-weight household items rather than heavy hardware or tools.
