Bananna Leaf & Seagrass Large Baskets – Natural Browns- Set of 3

A set of three large handwoven baskets made from banana leaf and seagrass, finished entirely in natural brown tones. These are textured, substantial storage baskets — the largest stands 29cm tall and 33cm across — with rope handles and decorative tassel details that give them a distinctly handcrafted, organic look. All three sizes nest together for compact storage. What Makes These Useful

The largest basket (33cm across, 29cm tall) holds blankets, throw cushions, magazines, or a small load of laundry. It works well on the floor beside a sofa, at the foot of a bed, or in a hallway corner. At 3.2kg for the full set, these have enough weight to feel grounded and stable. The medium (28.5cm across, 24.5cm tall) and small (24cm across, 23cm tall) fit on deeper shelves, inside wardrobes, or on top of a low cabinet. They're useful wherever you need visible storage that looks deliberate rather than temporary. Rope handles on each basket make them easy to lift and carry even when loaded. The handles sit close to the rim rather than extending outward, so the baskets still fit neatly against walls and furniture. The all-brown colour palette — no dyed accents — makes this set the most neutral option for rooms where you want the baskets to blend into the background rather than draw attention. The tonal variation comes entirely from the natural fibres themselves. Banana leaf fibre is denser and more rigid than seagrass alone. The combination of both materials creates a basket with thick, structured walls that hold their shape whether empty or full.

Banana Leaf, Seagrass, Cotton, Rope The body of each basket is built from coiled banana leaf fibre bound with seagrass — a construction method that produces a dense, layered surface with a visible spiral pattern. Banana leaf is a heavier, stiffer fibre than seagrass, which is why these baskets feel noticeably more solid than lighter woven styles. The surface has a natural textural variation: some sections sit slightly rougher, others smoother, depending on where the banana leaf strand was cut. Cotton thread secures the binding. Rope handles are anchored into the weave at the rim. Small tassels hang from the handles as a decorative detail. Each basket will vary slightly in tone, texture, and proportion — this is inherent to handwoven natural materials. Placement and Care The neutral brown tones work across most interior styles: rustic, bohemian, Scandinavian, coastal, mid-century, or modern neutral. They pair well with wood floors and furniture, linen textiles, white or cream walls, and warm earth-toned rooms. In a lighter, cooler-toned space, the deep browns add warmth and visual weight without introducing colour. Wipe with a dry cloth or dust with a soft brush to maintain the surface. A slightly damp cloth can be used for marks, but avoid soaking or prolonged contact with water — natural fibres weaken with moisture. Keep away from sustained direct sunlight, which can dry out the banana leaf and cause brittleness over time. These are indoor baskets. Two Fibres, One Weave Banana leaf has been used as a weaving material across tropical regions for centuries, particularly in Southeast Asia and East Africa. The dried leaves are stripped into long strands and used as both structural core and decorative surface. Pairing banana leaf with seagrass — a softer, more flexible fibre — combines the rigidity of the first with the pliability of the second. The result is a basket that resists deformation under weight while still having enough give to absorb bumps and daily handling without cracking. The layered weave also gives the surface a richer, more varied texture than single-material baskets, with subtle shifts in colour and sheen across the surface. Sizes and Weight Large: 33cm wide, 29cm tall.  Medium: 28.5cm wide, 24.5cm tall.  Small: 24cm wide, 23cm tall.  The full set weighs around 3.2kg. All three nest inside each other, which keeps storage manageable between uses or if you only want to display one or two at a time. A Practical Gift Woven storage baskets are one of those gifts people actually use — they solve a real problem in any home. The all-natural colour palette means you don't need to know someone's taste in colour to choose these confidently. A strong option for housewarmings, new-home gifts, or anyone furnishing a space from scratch. The set arrives nested and needs no additional wrapping. Common Questions What is the difference between banana leaf and seagrass baskets?Banana leaf is a denser, stiffer fibre that produces heavier, more rigid baskets. Seagrass is lighter and more flexible. This set combines both — banana leaf for structure and weight, s
