Details
The bread basket is made from cotton and jute, which is a natural fiber.
The fiber is extracted from the bark of the jute plant and goes through an extensive processing procedure before it becomes a finished jute product. Jute is an environmentally friendly material because the jute plant requires very little water.
Because the products are handmade, there will never be two products that are exactly alike. We hope you will appreciate the small peculiarities and the story of the products as much as we do — and we hope you will enjoy it for many years to come.
Care
- Not machine washable
- Shake your basket or wipe it with a lightly damp cloth
