You can never have too much storage we always say, and these lovely rattan baskets are just the thing for keeping things organized and clutter-free. Made by a co-operative in Vietnam from renewable rattan, they come in a choice of two warm, natural finishes.
MaterialsRattan (from the Malay rotan), is the name for the roughly six hundred species of palms in the tribe Calameae, native to tropical regions of Africa, Asia and Australasia. They are vine-like in their growth, scrambling through and over other vegetation.
In the forests where rattan grows, its economic value can help protect forest land, by providing an alternative to loggers who forgo timber logging and harvest rattan canes instead. Rattan is much easier to harvest, requiring simpler tools and also much easier to transport. Furthermore, compared to most tropical wood, rattan is much faster growing. This makes it a potential tool in forest maintenance, since it provides a profitable crop that depends on rather than replaces trees.
PeopleThese baskests are produced by a co-operative in Vietnam.
