Product Overview
River
From river fibres to refined living.
The River is a beautifully handcrafted water hyacinth basket that combines the functionality of a shallow storage basket with the refined character of a traditional serving tray.
Its low rectangular silhouette, raised rim, softly rounded corners and dense braided weave make it both practical and visually elegant. Natural variations of golden beige, honey and warm earthy-brown tones highlight the character of the fibre.

The Story Behind the Craft
