Main materials: seagrass, banana fibers

Our baskets are made from plant fibres, so they smell and feel wonderfully of nature.

What is commonly called 'seagrass' by basket makers is not actually an (under)water plant, but a small, palm-like plant that is widespread on sandy beaches in the tropics of Asia. The leaves of the plants, which are often cultivated by humans, are separated, cut into strips, dried and then processed by hand.

Banana fibres are the fibres of the layered trunks of banana trees used in agriculture. The intense brown colour is created naturally when the fibres are dried in the sun for about a week. The individual strips are then rolled into the characteristic, approximately 6 mm thick strands. Only old, dying banana trees are used for this material. This gives these crops a second life as a dimensionally stable and robust raw material for many handmade baskets here at Soeji.

Other material: nylon thread
