Price History
Description
Made from water hyacinth, woven onto wire panels, this storage basket is easy to fold and store away when not in use. Water hyacinth has a fibrous tissue which makes it ideal for basket weaving. Artisans use traditional weaving techniques to create decorative yet durable pieces.
Our Stylist Says
I love this basket for its natural, earthy appeal and practical foldable design, which makes it easy to store away when not in use. It works particularly well in coastal, boho, or Scandi-inspired interiors - pairing beautifully with light woods, neutral tones, and layered textiles. Stylistically, it’s perfect for organising laundry, magazines, or even as a stylish plant holder in a living space. Practical tips include using it as a stylish storage solution in the bathroom or utility room, or to contain kids' toys in a playroom, keeping clutter out of sight while adding a tactile, natural element to the decor. Its neutral colour and woven texture make it versatile enough to blend seamlessly into both modern and more traditional settings.

About John Lewis
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.
