SOUK in the CITY
SOUK Basket with POMPOM
A little misunderstanding. A lot of baskets.
We had this little Berber basket made in our SOUK colours. Only, somewhere along the way, there was a misunderstanding about the quantity. By the time we realised, the baskets were made. So we took them all.
And that’s how we ended up with rather a lot of the same little basket. Beautiful, yes. But we’d much rather see them in your homes than sitting on our shelves.
Handwoven by women in the villages around Guercif, Morocco, from coiled palm leaves wrapped in colourful wool. Stripes all around, a lid to hide your bits and pieces, and a fluffy pompom on top. Very SOUK.
For jewellery, keys, bathroom bits or whatever usually ends up next to the basket. Also lovely as a gift, with a little surprise tucked inside. Or - my favorite - a stunning planter.

The same colour combination and striped design throughout this collection, with small variations in shape, size and finish. Handmade still means handmade — even when we have rather a lot of them.
