Marye-Kelley Nantucket Bloom Wastepaper Basket

Yes, the exterior features a water-resistant finish, making it durable enough to handle the humidity typically found in bathrooms. However, it is designed for dry waste, so avoid using it for wet items or direct water exposure.

The basket measures 9 inches wide by 9 inches deep and stands 11 inches tall. Its compact, square footprint makes it an ideal size for tucking under a desk or beside a vanity.

To keep the finish looking its best, simply wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the hand-painted edges and the delicate decoupage artwork.

While it does not require a liner, using one can help protect the interior wood from stains or debris. Because it has an open-top design, ensure your liner is sized appropriately so it does not hang visibly over the edges.

The edges are hand-painted and polished by artisans to ensure a high-quality finish. With normal, careful use, they are durable, but they should be treated with the same care as any other fine decorative home accessory to prevent scratching.
