Savar Bread Basket with White Handle

Woven from seagrass with a natural jute fiber handle, this bread basket is handmade by Fair Trade artisans in Bangladesh. Seagrass is a fast-growing aquatic plant harvested without soil disruption; jute is a rain-fed crop requiring little to no pesticide. Because each piece is made by hand, expect minor variations in size, color, and weave — that is the point.

At end of life, both seagrass and jute fiber will break down in a home compost pile, though the timeline depends on your conditions. Packaging details are not disclosed by the supplier — ask us before ordering if that matters to your decision. The white cotton wrapping on the handle may not compost as reliably; remove it and check fiber content before composting.
