FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the picnic basket?
The dimensions are approximately 72cm in length, 50cm in width, and 34cm in height. Please note that as this is a natural product, slight variations in size may occur.
Can I choose the color of the lining?
Yes, this basket is available with linings in black, grey sage, navy blue, or white. It is also available unlined.
Is this basket waterproof?
The basket itself is not waterproof. While the willow is durable, it should not be exposed to excessive moisture. The linings offer some protection for contents but are not designed to be waterproof.
How should I clean the leather handles?
Gently wipe the leather handles with a damp cloth. For best results, you can use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to keep them supple.
Are the materials used in this basket environmentally friendly?
Yes, the basketware is crafted from sustainable willow materials, making it an eco-friendly option.
What if my basket has slight imperfections?
Slight variations in size, color, and finish are natural characteristics of handmade items crafted from natural materials like willow. These are not considered defects but add to the unique charm of each piece.
Can this trunk be used for heavy storage?
While sturdy, it is primarily designed for picnic use and general household storage. Avoid overloading it with excessively heavy items that could strain the construction or handles.
Troubleshooting
Wicker strands feel rough or have small splinters.
Gently smooth with a fine-grit sandpaper or a damp cloth. This can be a natural characteristic of hand-woven willow.
Leather handles feel stiff.
Condition the leather handles with a leather conditioner specifically designed for natural leather products.
Lining appears stained.
Check the lining material. For fabric linings, spot clean with a mild soap and water solution. Refer to specific lining care if available.
Basket has a slight odor upon arrival.
Air out the basket in a well-ventilated area for a few days. The natural materials may have a slight scent that dissipates over time.
