Hexagon Weave Bamboo Basket with Lid

This bamboo basket is finely crafted from natural bamboo strips, combining breathability with refined functionality. Both the body and lid feature a beautiful hexagonal star pattern. Flat strips of bamboo firmly weave through the bottom of the basket for a durable base. Line with parchment paper or cloth and use to serve sweets, teatime treats, and more. This basket is also ideal for storing fruits and displaying small items and table accents.

The rim is reinforced with extra care, ensuring long-lasting durability even with frequent use. The lid is gracefully finished, and when placed on a counter or table, it brings a sense of warmth and cleanliness to the space.

Bamboo is an environmentally friendly and sustainable material, and one of its charms lies in the way it develops a rich amber hue over time with continued use.
