Awiti Handwoven Sabai Grass Hanging Wall Basket Large - Beige

How is a handwoven wall basket different from a machine-made one?

Handwoven wall baskets are crafted by skilled artisans, making each piece unique with slight variations in weave and texture. In contrast, machine-made baskets tend to have uniform patterns but lack the authentic handcrafted touch.

Can I use this basket as a centerpiece instead of hanging it on the wall?

Yes, this versatile basket can be used as a tabletop centerpiece, fruit holder, or decorative accent for shelves, adding a natural and artisanal feel to your space.

Does this basket have a specific cultural or traditional significance?

Many handwoven baskets are inspired by traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. They often carry cultural significance and represent sustainable craftsmanship.

How much weight can this wall basket hold?

While it is sturdy, it is primarily designed for decorative purposes and lightweight storage. Overloading it with heavy objects may damage its structure or hanging mechanism.

Will this basket develop a smell over time?

Being made from natural grass, it may have a mild earthy scent initially, which usually fades with time. Keeping it in a well-ventilated area helps prevent any musty odor.

How do I prevent mold or mildew on this basket?

Avoid placing it in damp or humid areas for prolonged periods. If needed, occasional sun-drying or using silica gel packets nearby can help absorb moisture.

Does the basket shed fibers over time?

Some shedding may occur initially due to loose natural fibers, but it reduces over time with regular use. Gentle dusting can help keep it clean and minimize shedding.
