Grey Kubu Rectangular Handled Laundry Basket - 30cm

Description

DescriptionA laundry basket, 30cm tall, in grey. At 54cm wide it is a little narrower than a standard interior door. A basket is storage you leave in view, which is the whole argument for buying a good-looking one. It turns a pile of things that would otherwise need a cupboard into something that can sit in the open beside a sofa or under a console.
Cool tones settle beside grey, blue and black without any effort. Against a warm timber they need something to mediate, or the two simply sit next to each other. The handles are the part that decides whether it gets used. A container without them cannot be moved once it is full, which is exactly the moment anyone wants to move it, and woven-in handles outlast stitched-on ones. Rattan is a climbing palm, steamed and bent rather than cut and joined, which is why the curves are continuous and the whole piece weighs so little. Every length differs slightly in colour, so no two pieces match exactly.
Buy for what goes in it rather than for the gap it fills. Logs, blankets and toys all want different depths, and a basket that is too deep swallows whatever is at the bottom until you stop using it for that.
It needs nothing beyond dusting, and a damp cloth on the finish rather than anything solvent.
