Black Flat Lid Basket | Large

Black Flat Lid Basket | Large

A masterclass in modern minimalism and West African soul.

The Large Black Flat Lid Basket is the ultimate "Chameleon" for the contemporary home. Stripping back the aesthetic to its most essential elements, this piece features a deep, obsidian-black weave that highlights the intricate texture of the hand-coiled millet grass. Its sleek, flat lid creates a clean, architectural silhouette, allowing it to function not just as a storage vessel, but as a sophisticated side table or a sculptural anchor in a minimalist entryway.

Designed for those who crave "Global Modern" style with a moody edge, this basket offers endless utility. Use it to disappear a week’s worth of linens in the master suite, organize winter accessories by the front door, or stow away oversized throw pillows in the den. Its dark, uniform tone provides a striking contrast to neutral interiors, proving that traditional craftsmanship can be the height of avant-garde design.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain the deep black finish and organic texture, we recommend a light dusting with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Because each basket is individually handmade, expect subtle variations in the weave and shape that distinguish it as an authentic, one-of-a-kind piece of functional art.
