Medium Blue, Turquoise & Red Log or Laundry Basket
Bring deep Ghanaian colour to your fireplace with the?Nanabin log basket, in a handy medium size. With tribal-inspired bands of?blue, turquoise and red, this tall woven basket is perfect for filling with firewood but also works as a beautiful laundry basket, toy basket, or a storage basket for bedding, towels, rugs and blankets. Every log basket in this new collection is totally unique ? made once and sold once.
The Nanabin?log basket is handwoven from tough veta vera grass ? a local raw material that?s sustainably sourced. Basket weaving brings these female weavers the opportunity to earn a vital second income to support their farming work, childcare and domestic duties within the fair, supportive and ethical framework of the cooperative.
The cotton calico liners produced to fit our laundry baskets are manufactured by a social enterprise based in East London. These cotton liners are sewn by women facing multiple barriers to employment, being previously unemployed and with no prior work experience. These women have learnt exemplary sewing skills on free training programmes and now work to commission, costed at the London Living Wage. Choose to have your woven laundry basket with or without the liner!

HANDMADE IN GHANA
THE LAUNDRY BASKETS.
Bring a splash of colour to laundry days with one of our beautiful, hand woven laundry baskets – all handmade in Kenya. Choose from our colour block sisal baskets with leather carry handles or opt for a sturdy, lidded laundry basket woven from doum palm leaf. Each laundry hamper takes up to six days to weave by hand, and all can be repurposed around the home as log baskets or toy storage, for example. Our sisal laundry baskets are a particularly good size for blankets and throws, slippers and gloves and hats, whilst our lidded doum palm baskets come in three handy sizes, plus a smaller basket in round and oval shapes. Our range of ethically produced laundry baskets offer something practical and beautiful for every household – even the largest family!
