# Title: Storage Basket – Banana Fibre, Cotton ## Description: Product description DALU is a handwoven storage basket made primarily from sturdy, sun-dried banana fibre, finished with a cotton band in a traditional two-tone zigzag pattern. Designed to work as a laundry basket, plant basket or everyday storage, it offers generous volume and practical carry handles while keeping a calm, natural look that suits Scandinavian interiors. The basket’s surface shows the character of the material: banana fibre is rolled into thick strands and tightly coiled for a robust, dimensional shape. The warm, natural brown tone comes from drying the fibres in the sun, while the woven cotton detailing in beige, black and white adds structure without feeling busy. The handles are wrapped for a comfortable grip, making it easy to move between bedroom, bathroom and utility space. DALU is handmade in Java, Indonesia by experienced artisans. Because it is crafted from natural fibres and made by hand, each piece can vary slightly in colour, shape and weave—subtle differences that underline its handmade quality.

The material comes from the layered trunks of banana trees that have reached the end of their lifecycle, giving the fibres a second use as a durable raw material. The result is a basket that feels substantial, resists slumping and stays easy to carry even when filled with towels or laundry. The cotton applications are not only decorative; they provide a clean visual break and reinforce the rim area—useful where baskets tend to receive the most wear. How it works in the home Use DALU in the bathroom for laundry, in the bedroom for throws and extra cushions, or on a hallway console for gloves, scarves and everyday clutter. It also works well as a plant basket to conceal a nursery pot—ideal for larger houseplants where you want a softer, natural look than ceramic. Tip for plants: Place the plant in a waterproof inner pot or use a saucer/liner inside the basket to protect the fibres from moisture. Details Texture: Natural fibre coil with a warm, matte surface Design: Rounded silhouette with a contrasting cotton zigzag rim and wrapped handles Care: Keep dry; dust or vacuum gently with a soft brush. If needed, wipe with a lightly damp cloth and allow to air-dry completely. Avoid soaking and prolonged direct sunlight. A tasteful gift idea With its neutral colours and practical purpose, DALU is a considerate gift for housewarmings, new parents, or anyone setting up a calmer storage system. It suits many interior styles and can be used immediately—no special fittings or maintenance required.
