Savar Bread Basket with Natural Handle

Woven from seagrass by Fair Trade–certified village artisans in Bangladesh, this basket is sized to actually fit a table — large (3″ × 19″ × 8.25″) or small (3″ × 14.5″ × 7″) — and works for bread, cutlery, or countertop clutter. Because it is handmade, expect minor variation in color and dimensions; that is the material behaving as it should.

Seagrass grows quickly, which is genuinely useful context, but the fiber is not indestructible — standing water and prolonged direct sun will degrade it faster than ordinary use. At end of life, a seagrass basket free of synthetic dyes or coatings can go into a municipal or backyard compost bin; confirm your local facility accepts woven plant fiber before assuming. Vendor did not disclose packaging details — contact Korissa directly if that factors into your decision.
