FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the basket?

The basket has approximate dimensions of 72cm in length, 50cm in width, and 34cm in height. Please note that as this is a natural product, there may be slight variations in size.

Is the basket waterproof?

The willow itself is not waterproof. It is best to protect the contents from rain or moisture. If the basket gets wet, ensure it is dried thoroughly to prevent damage.

What are the available lining colors?

This particular model is available lined in black, grey sage, navy blue, or white. It is also available unlined.

Can I remove the lining for cleaning?

The ability to remove the lining depends on the specific construction of your basket. Check if the lining is secured with ties or snaps that allow for removal. If not, spot cleaning is recommended.

Is this basket suitable for everyday storage?

While durable, it is primarily designed as a picnic hamper. For long-term storage, especially in humid conditions, ensure it is kept in a dry, well-ventilated space to maintain its condition.

How should I clean the leather handles?

Wipe the leather handles with a clean, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a product specifically designed for leather care, testing on a small area first.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, this model comes in other colors, including Red, Blue, and Black, in addition to the Grey variant.

Troubleshooting

Basket has a slight odor

This is common with natural willow. Air the basket out in a well-ventilated area for a few days before use. The odor should dissipate.

Minor imperfections in the weave

As this is a natural, handmade product, slight variations in the weave are normal and add to its unique character. They do not typically affect functionality.

Lining appears stained

Spot clean the lining gently with a mild soap and water solution. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Leather handles feel stiff

You can condition the leather handles with a standard leather conditioner. Apply sparingly and buff gently.

Care Instructions:
