Storage Basket – Bamboo, Whitewashed
Product description
BENOA is a handwoven bamboo basket designed for everyday storage and for use as a laundry basket or plant basket. The rounded silhouette and generous volume make it practical in busy homes, while the whitewashed bamboo weave keeps the look calm and light. Finished with sturdy seagrass and jute handles, it’s easy to carry from bedroom to utility room, or to move when cleaning.
The basket is woven from fast-renewing bamboo fibres and finished in a softly worn, white-toned surface that lets the natural material show through. Up close you can see the tight, diagonal weave and subtle variations in tone—details that come from working with plant fibres and from the fully handmade process. The handles sit high on the rim, giving a comfortable grip and helping the basket keep its shape when lifted.
Used as a laundry hamper, BENOA keeps clothing contained without looking utilitarian. Used as a basket planter, it adds texture around indoor plants and helps soften the feel of ceramic or plastic pots. For plant use, place the pot on a waterproof saucer or inside a liner to protect the natural fibres from prolonged moisture.

Why this product stands out
Many storage baskets look good but collapse when used daily. BENOA is woven from sturdy bamboo with a firm rim that supports the shape, making it suitable for heavier loads like towels, bedding, or a full laundry round. The handle material mix—seagrass and jute—adds grip and durability where the basket is handled most. Because each basket is crafted by hand, small differences in weave and colour are part of the material’s character rather than a defect.
How it works in the home
BENOA fits naturally into Scandinavian and minimal interiors where storage needs to stay visible without feeling busy. Place it:
- in the bedroom as a discreet laundry basket
- beside a sofa for throws and cushions
- in the hallway for scarves, gloves, or children’s accessories
- next to a plant stand to cover inner pots and collect watering tools
- in the bathroom for spare towels (keep it dry and well ventilated)

A tasteful gift idea
