Price History
Description
This square seagrass basket is perfect for storing stationery or craft materials. Fast-growing seagrass is hand-woven by highly skilled artisans. Its durability and strength make it ideal for basket-weaving.
Our Stylist Says
I love this basket for its natural, earthy look that adds texture and warmth to a space. Its seagrass construction combined with the green accents makes it versatile enough to complement both coastal and bohemian interiors, while also working well in modern or minimalist settings as a touch of organic material. Practical styling tips include using it for storage in the bathroom for towels or toiletries, or in the living room for magazines and throws. The rectangular shape makes it especially handy for maximizing space on shelves or under tables, and its neutral tones ensure it seamlessly blends with a range of colour schemes.

A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
