There's a reason seagrass baskets appear in virtually every coastal, Hamptons, and organic-modern interior you admire. They're functional, beautiful, and deeply rooted in artisan craft traditions from Southeast Asia. But styling them well takes a little intention. Here's how to do it right.
1. Entryway: The Catch-All That Looks Intentional
A large seagrass basket near your front door — holding umbrellas, rolled throws, or extra shoes — immediately signals a home that values both beauty and practicality. Choose a tall, structured style for maximum impact.
2. Living Room: The Blanket Basket
A medium seagrass basket beside a sofa, filled with folded linen throws, is a classic for good reason. It's warm, accessible, and adds texture to a space that can otherwise feel flat.
3. Bedroom: Under-Bed or Closet Storage
Flat, lidded seagrass baskets are ideal for under-bed storage — extra linens, seasonal clothing, or shoes. They're far more beautiful than plastic bins and just as functional.
4. Kitchen or Pantry: Produce and Dry Goods
A seagrass basket on a kitchen counter or open shelf, holding fruit, bread, or wrapped pantry items, brings warmth to a space that often skews cold and utilitarian.
5. Bathroom: Towels and Toiletries
Stack two or three seagrass baskets in a bathroom corner — one for rolled towels, one for toiletries, one for extra toilet paper. It's a spa-like touch that costs very little.
6. Wall Art: The Basket Gallery Wall
Hang a curated collection of seagrass and rattan baskets in varying sizes and weave patterns on a blank wall. This is one of the most impactful — and affordable — wall treatments in coastal design right now.
A Note on Sourcing
Our seagrass baskets are handwoven by artisans in Indonesia, using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Each basket is slightly unique — a feature, not a flaw.
