The baskets are covered in paper and show wear along the rims and corners. In several places the paper has partially rubbed away or torn, revealing the bamboo structure underneath: a woven lattice that adds texture and character. You can also see older reinforcements along the edges and within the structure, typical of utilitarian pieces that were used for a long time.

The set is still sturdy and perfectly functional. Ideal as stylish storage for blankets, throws, and textiles, but also beautiful in a bathroom for towels, in a bedroom for scarves, or in a living room as a calm, practical basket for magazines and everyday items.

As a pair, they work beautifully as a decorative duo, with just enough imperfection to create a true wabi-sabi feel. See less
