Wall Basket – Water Hyacinth, Black
Product description
BANDUNG is a round wall basket that also works as a shallow decorative bowl. Handwoven from sturdy water hyacinth with graphic black detailing in recycled plastic, it brings a calm, natural texture to the wall while keeping a clean, contemporary pattern. A discreet metal frame helps it hold its shape, and an eyelet on the back makes it easy to hang with a single nail.
The woven surface has a warm, beige tone with a clear spiral rhythm, finished with contrasting black braids that add definition without feeling busy. Because the fibres are natural and each piece is made by hand, small variations in weave, tone, and shape are part of the character and a sign of genuine craftsmanship.
Water hyacinth is a fast-growing aquatic plant that is regularly removed from waterways. Once dried, its thick stems become a durable material for basketry. In BANDUNG, the natural fibres are combined with recycled plastic accents for a sharper pattern and long-lasting structure.

Why this product stands out
Many wall baskets are purely decorative; BANDUNG is made with a firm weave and a supportive frame so it keeps its round form over time. The recycled plastic appliqués are not an afterthought—they are integrated into the weave to create a crisp black pattern that reads well from a distance, even on white walls. The result is a practical piece of woven wall décor that also functions as a shallow centre bowl for everyday styling.
How it works in the home
Use BANDUNG as a wall basket in a hallway to add texture without taking up floor space, or group it with other round pieces for a balanced wall arrangement. In the living room, it sits well above a sofa or on a gallery wall where the black spiral detail can echo other dark accents. As a decorative bowl, place it on a dining table or kitchen island to hold fruit, bread, or seasonal objects, or use it on a bedroom dresser for small items you want close at hand.
