What makes this straw basket with wave design special
A wave pattern is woven into the body, one of the more decorative designs in the collection. A leather pocket on the front keeps keys, phone or tickets within reach instead of sinking to the bottom.
Flat leather handles spread the load, so they stay comfortable even when it is full.
Handwoven in Morocco from doum palm and genuine leather
Every straw basket with wave design is handmade in Morocco by local artisans from natural raw materials. The palm is woven by hand and finished with genuine leather details, so small differences in shade and shape are part of the charm. Our story goes back to 1962.
Doum palm is one of the traditional raw materials of Moroccan craftsmanship, alongside date palm leaves and rush. It weaves into a light, natural-looking fabric, and the leather adds strength where the piece is handled.
Weaving baskets from plant fibres is one of the oldest crafts in the world and is found in many cultures; for a general overview, see this page on basket weaving.
The leather is genuine leather: it softens and darkens naturally with use, so your piece gains character over time.
Size and fit
The straw basket with wave design measures 30 × 16 × 32 cm (length × width × height). That makes it a practical everyday size.
How to use your straw basket with wave design
Wear the straw basket with wave design on the shoulder for market shopping, a picnic or a summer day out. It carries more than a handbag and looks good with linen, cotton and denim.
This piece works as a statement summer bag. Use it for the market, a day trip or the beach, and enjoy a natural look that goes with almost everything.
How to care for it
To clean the straw basket with wave design, brush off dust with a soft brush and wipe it with a lightly damp cloth. Let it dry naturally, away from direct sun and heaters. A little leather conditioner now and then keeps the leather supple.
