Natural Seagrass Bread Basket with Handle

The Bread Basket That Does Rather More Than Hold Bread

We'll be honest—we ordered this thinking it would sit prettily on the kitchen counter cradling a baguette or two. Then it promptly took over our lives. Handcrafted by artisans in Bangladesh using sustainably sourced seagrass, this rather splendid basket has become our go-to for everything from bread service to organising cutlery at dinner parties, stashing craft supplies, tidying the bathroom, and generally making chaos look intentional.

The beauty of a properly made basket is its cheerful refusal to be confined to one job. Kitchen, office, bathroom, bedroom—it adapts with the kind of grace we aspire to but rarely achieve.

Why Choose Our Bread Basket

• Natural Materials: Seagrass ages beautifully and feels lovely to handle—no synthetic shortcuts here.
• Endlessly Versatile: Bread, napkins, cutlery, throws, office supplies, craft projects, forgotten birthday cards—it handles them all with aplomb.

Keeping Your Basket Looking Its Best

• Dust or vacuum regularly to maintain its fresh appearance
• Wipe with a damp cloth if needed, then dry thoroughly
• Avoid rubbing stains, as this can spread them and loosen the fibres
• Keep away from direct sunlight to preserve the natural colour

A basket this useful and well-made deserves a place in your home. They do tend to become favourites rather quickly.
