Our materials

We work with solid wood, stone, glass and natural fibre, chosen for how they age rather than how they photograph. Every piece is finished by hand, so grain, tone and outline shift from one to the next.

More on how we choose them

A QUIET OBJECT

The pot a tree deserves

A young olive or a fiddle leaf is an expensive plant standing in a cheap pot. Cotton rope, a cream rim and a pair of tassels fix that for a fraction of the cost of a ceramic planter — and weigh nothing when you decide to move it.

MATERIAL & MAKING

Rope stitched onto rope

Coiled cotton, a cream rim and tassels at the top.

01

Fibre

Cotton rope

Coiled and stitched round on round, so the wall is rope all the way through rather than fabric over a frame.

02

Colour

Two tones

Warm brown below, cream above — a line that sits at the height where the leaves start.

03

Detail

Tassels

A white cord wrapped at the rim with tassels worked in, which keeps the top from reading flat.

04

Handles

Worked in

Two handles stitched into the sides, so a full pot can be moved without dragging it.

FROM THE WORKSHOP

“

Rope coiled and stitched by hand takes hours and gives you a basket with no frame inside it. It bends a little when you lift it, and then it sits back exactly as it was.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions, answered

A few things worth knowing before it arrives.

Will my plant pot fit?

It's 12 in / 30 cm wide inside the rim, which takes the standard nursery pot most indoor trees are sold in.

Can I water through it?

Lift the pot out first. There's no drainage hole and cotton rope holds damp longer than you'd want.

Do the colours vary?

Slightly. Each basket is stitched by hand, so where the brown meets the cream shifts a little from piece to piece.

How do I clean it?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and let it dry fully. Don't machine wash it.

Is it sturdy enough to move?

Yes — the two handles are stitched into the wall, not glued on. Lift by both rather than one.

Made by hand

The variation is the object, not a flaw.

Every piece is shaped, sanded and finished in a small workshop. Grain, tone and outline move from one to the next, so the piece that arrives is yours rather than a copy of the photograph.
