Know before you buy
Fique is a natural, durable fiber native to Colombia, known for its strength and rustic texture. It is a sustainable material that maintains its shape well, making it ideal for functional home accessories.
Yes, the basket is made from natural, non-toxic fibers, making it safe for holding dry goods or fruit. However, since it is a woven material, it is best to avoid direct contact with wet or messy items to prevent staining.
To clean, simply wipe the basket gently with a dry, soft cloth or use a vacuum with a brush attachment on a low setting. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as moisture can damage the natural fibers.
Because each basket is handmade by artisans using natural dyes, there may be slight variations in color intensity. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure each piece is unique.
The Caribe Basket is designed primarily for decorative use and lightweight storage, such as utensils, small plants, or desk supplies. It is not intended for carrying heavy loads or items that require a rigid, reinforced base.
