Asmi Handwoven Sabai Basket

There is a hint of mystery in the Asmi Handwoven Sabai Basket design – the black dot in the centre posing an eternal question of space and identity! And it’s no wonder as these beautiful baskets come all the way from rural Odisha, India, where skilled craftswomen weave them by hand out of Sabai grass fibres. 

Create a point of interest on your walls with this versatile and handy piece that can either be used as art or serve a purely utilitarian function like hold dry snacks or other trinkets you want to keep in one place. Comes with a handy loop for hanging.

Embracing Imperfections: The beauty of handmade products is in the slight variations between pieces. This is a natural outcome of weaving by hand and is not in any manner a flaw or imperfection. Handwoven Sabai baskets represent the craft and skill of rural artisans, and each one is perfect on its own. Any irregularity in the weave or design is considered normal and natural to the weaving process. Each piece retains its singular identity, giving you a unique piece of décor for your home.
