FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the basket?
The approximate dimensions are Length 41cm x Width 30cm x Height 23cm. The total height including the handle is approximately 40cm. Please note that due to the natural material, dimensions can vary slightly.
Is the cotton lining machine washable?
Yes, the removable cotton lining can be machine washed. It is recommended to wash it according to standard cotton fabric care, and ensure it is completely dry before reinserting it into the basket.
What is the basket made from?
The basket is crafted from high-quality buff willow, a natural and sustainable material. It features dark brown leather hinges and a removable cotton lining.
Can I put hot food directly into the basket?
It is recommended to use containers for hot food to maintain hygiene and protect the lining. The basket is primarily designed for carrying picnic items rather than direct food storage of hot items.
How should I store the picnic basket when not in use?
Store the basket in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Ensure the basket is completely dry before storing to prevent moisture damage or mildew.
Are the colour variations normal?
Yes, natural products like willow can have slight variations in colour and finish. This is a characteristic of the natural material and adds to the unique charm of each basket.
Does the basket come with any picnic accessories?
This specific product is for the basket itself, including the removable cotton lining. It does not come with additional picnic accessories like plates or cutlery.
Troubleshooting
Lining has a stain.
Remove the cotton lining and wash according to care instructions. Ensure it is fully dry before placing it back in the basket.
Basket feels slightly uneven.
Natural materials can have slight variations. This does not affect the functionality or durability of the basket.
Willow appears dry or brittle.
Ensure the basket is stored in a dry place. If it seems excessively dry, you can lightly condition the willow with a natural oil (like linseed oil), testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid over-oiling.
Leather hinges are stiff.
Gently condition the leather hinges with a leather conditioner suitable for natural materials. Ensure no excess product is left on the willow.
