The Storageworks Seagrass Baskets utilize sustainably harvested seagrass woven over a galvanized iron wire frame. This internal metal structure provides a high load-to-weight ratio, allowing the baskets to hold items over 10 lbs without collapsing. The iron frame is treated with a rust-resistant coating, which adds a layer of practical safety for use in potentially humid areas like bathrooms or laundry rooms.
The tapered geometry of these baskets allows them to nest together when not in use, making them easy to store or transport. While the weave is tight and reinforced at the handles, natural fibers like seagrass can experience minor shedding during the initial "break-in" period. Because of the deep-weave design, using compressed air is an effective way to remove any dust that may accumulate within the fibers over time.
When wall-mounting these units for heavier loads, using a dual-anchor L-bracket system behind the weave can help support the iron frame and prevent deformation.
If you prefer a softer, machine-washable material for your storage needs, the stylish wall hanging cotton baskets provide a similar look with different maintenance features.
These baskets are excellent for organizing household sundries; view more options in the woven baskets with lids category.
