Pigeon And Poodle Ghent Wastebasket

Yes, the Ghent wastebasket is constructed from durable Bagor grass. While it has a delicate, organic appearance, it is designed to hold its shape well for standard daily use in a bedroom, office, or bathroom.

Maintenance is simple. You can keep it looking fresh by wiping the exterior down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the basket in water, as this can damage the natural fibers.

Because each Ghent wastebasket is handcrafted, you should expect slight variations in the weave and finish. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that your piece is one-of-a-kind.

While it works beautifully in a bathroom, we recommend keeping it in a dry area away from direct water contact, such as near a vanity or under a desk. Prolonged exposure to high humidity or direct splashes may affect the natural material over time.

The basket does not come with a liner, and its open-weave construction means it is best suited for dry waste like paper, tissues, or office trash. If you plan to dispose of anything wet or messy, we recommend using a small, discreet plastic liner inside.
