Description
This woven plastic basket takes the shape of an open flower, with a wavy, petal-like rim in bright orange and a pink centre woven in a neat spiral at its base. The sides are worked in an open, wicker-style lattice that lets the light through, and the rim is finished with a tightly wrapped edge that follows every curve of the petals. It measures 26.2cm across and stands 5.5cm high, so it is a shallow, generous dish rather than a deep tub, and at 0.213KG it is light enough to move from room to room without a second thought.
We like it anywhere a little colour is welcome. On a kitchen worktop or open shelf it gathers the odds and ends that otherwise wander, from keys and post to tea towels, and in a hallway it makes a cheerful catch-all for gloves and sunglasses. Set at the centre of a dining table, it brings a sunny, summery note to the setting, and on a dressing table it keeps hair ties, brushes and small bottles together in one place. Because it is shallow, everything inside stays easy to see and reach, which is exactly what you want from storage you use every day.
It is made from polypropylene plastic and metal, woven strand over strand in the manner of traditional wicker, and the wrapped rim gives the petals a firm, defined edge. Like most woven pieces it is easy to look after: wipe it over with a damp cloth and let it dry, and use a soft dry brush to lift any dust that settles in the weave. Keep it away from direct heat. For the brightest look, set it against plain white tableware, pale wood or a neutral shelf, where the orange and pink really sing, and it makes a cheerful present for anyone who loves a dash of colour at home.
