Bloomist Lidded Senegalese Basket

The combination of native grasses and recycled plastic straps creates a sturdy, resilient structure. The plastic weaving reinforces the natural fibers, making these baskets robust enough for daily tasks like holding laundry or storing household items.

No, each basket is unique. Because they are handwoven by artisans using natural materials, you should expect slight variations in pattern, shape, and color, which is part of the charm of authentic, handcrafted goods.

While the materials are durable, we recommend keeping the basket in a dry, well-ventilated area. Prolonged exposure to high humidity or moisture can affect the natural grasses over time.

Maintenance is simple. You can gently wipe the basket down with a soft, dry cloth or use a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust from the crevices. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents or soaking the basket in water.

The lid is designed to sit snugly on top of the basket, providing a clean, finished look. It is intended for light coverage rather than a locking mechanism, so it is best suited for items that don't extend significantly above the rim.
