El Dorado Edit Bread Basket

Tetera is a natural, fibrous material traditionally harvested and woven by the Eperâra Siapidarâ community. It is known for its structural integrity and resilience, making it a sturdy choice for holding heavier items like fruits or vegetables.

Yes, the basket is food-safe and ideal for serving bread, fruits, or vegetables. Because it is a natural, handwoven product, we recommend lining it with a cloth napkin if you are serving items that might leave crumbs or moisture.

To clean, simply wipe the basket with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as moisture can damage the natural straw fibers over time.

Because each basket is meticulously handcrafted by indigenous artisans, slight variations in size and shape are expected. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the traditional weaving process and ensure your piece is one-of-a-kind.

The colors are derived from the natural tones of the straw. To preserve the vibrancy of the weave, it is best to keep the basket out of direct, prolonged sunlight, which can cause natural fibers to lighten or become brittle.
