Description
Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Bangladesh, the Biara Basket is woven from natural seagrass using traditional techniques. Once harvested, the seagrass is dried and twisted into rope before being worked by hand into its circular form, with the close weave creating a tactile surface and the fitted lid keeping smaller belongings neatly concealed.
Available in two separately sold sizes, the Biara can be chosen to suit the space or combined across both sizes for a more layered arrangement. The natural seagrass brings gentle variation in tone and texture to every piece, while the handwoven construction means subtle differences in weave, shape and dimensions are to be expected. These individual characteristics are part of the basket's handcrafted beauty and ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike.
Styling Inspiration
Use the Biara on a bedside table or dressing table for jewellery and smaller accessories, or place it in the bathroom to keep cotton pads, toiletries and everyday essentials neatly contained. On open shelving, its rounded silhouette provides a softer contrast to books and ceramics, while the larger size is equally useful for keeping remotes, cables and smaller pieces of everyday clutter out of sight.
Its warm woven texture sits naturally alongside timber, linen, stoneware and greenery, making the Biara easy to incorporate into relaxed contemporary, coastal, rustic and Scandinavian-inspired interiors. Style the two sizes together for a coordinated look, or let a single basket introduce just a touch of natural texture where it is needed.
Care Instructions
Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth or use a vacuum with a brush attachment. For light marks, wipe carefully with a slightly damp cloth and allow the basket to dry fully before replacing the lid or using it again. Avoid soaking, excessive moisture and prolonged exposure to strong direct sunlight, which may affect the natural seagrass over time.
