Description
This woven rattan basket has a pair of tall rabbit ears rising from inside its rim, turning a simple storage piece into something playful and full of character. The ears are woven in an open, airy pattern that lets the light through, while the body is a close basketweave in a warm, natural honey tone, finished with a smooth arched carry handle in a slightly deeper shade. The basket itself is 17cm long, 15cm wide and 14cm high, and it stands 30cm tall overall once you count the handle and the ears.
It is a cheerful home for the small things that gather on surfaces. Set it on a bookshelf, a bedroom chest of drawers or a hallway console and let it hold hair ties, keys, craft pieces, a folded scarf or a favourite soft toy. The open top makes it easy to reach in and out, and the handle means you can lift it down and carry it to wherever it is needed next. As a gift, it works beautifully filled with treats, little presents or a posy of dried flowers, so the basket becomes part of the present and is kept long after it has been unpacked.
Each basket is handmade from rattan, so the colour and size may vary a little from one to the next, which gives every piece its own character. It weighs just 108g, light enough to carry with one hand. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth or brush and keep it away from water and damp, as you would with any natural woven piece. For a pretty display, place it beside a pot of spring bulbs or line it with a scrap of linen before you fill it.
