Laundry Basket – Seagrass, Cotton, Natural
Product description
Laundry Basket NIAS is a large, handwoven storage basket made from natural seagrass with a woven cotton rim and integrated carry handles. Designed for everyday use, it works as a laundry hamper, a plant basket (with a waterproof inner pot), or a clean storage solution for blankets, toys, and towels. The cylindrical form and textured weave suit Nordic interiors where materials and function matter.
The basket’s body is tightly braided from seagrass, giving it a structured feel while remaining flexible enough to move and store easily. A contrasting cotton finish at the top adds a soft edge and helps the opening keep its shape. Two sturdy, easy-grip handles are built into the rim, so the basket can be carried from bedroom to bathroom or moved around the living room without fuss.
Because seagrass is a plant fibre, NIAS has a natural, slightly tactile surface and a warm beige tone that pairs well with light woods, stoneware, and muted textiles. Each basket is handmade, so small variations in weave, size, and colour are part of the character rather than a flaw.

Why this product stands out
Many laundry baskets rely on plastic frames or rigid lids; NIAS keeps the look calm and the use practical through a strong natural weave and a soft textile rim. The seagrass construction gives the basket its strength and breathable storage—useful for laundry and linens—while the wide opening makes daily loading and unloading simple. It is also a considered option for anyone looking for natural-fibre storage that feels consistent with Scandinavian design values: honest materials, visible craftsmanship, and a clear purpose.
How it works in the home
Place NIAS in the bathroom for towels and laundry, in the bedroom for throws and extra bedding, or beside a sofa for magazines and blankets. Used as a plant basket, it frames indoor greenery without the visual weight of a ceramic pot—simply place your plant in a waterproof inner pot or liner before setting it inside. The handles make it easy to shift between spaces, which is especially useful in smaller homes where storage often needs to be flexible.

A tasteful gift idea
