Main material: raffia

These baskets are made from plant fibers. They therefore smell and feel wonderfully like nature.

Bast (Corypha utan) occurs naturally in the steppe and forest areas of Southeast Asia. The plant renews its leaves about every two years and sheds the old ones, which are then collected by people, dried in the sun for a few days to weeks and, depending on the desired degree of browning, made into basketry. The relative rarity and the higher processing effort make this material slightly more expensive compared to other plant fibers. While it is hardly known in Europe, the material has proven itself among the local population in Southeast Asia in the form of all kinds of everyday objects and is very popular due to its pleasantly soft but robust nature.

This basket is handmade in Java, Indonesia.
When selecting local producers, Soeji attaches great importance to fair pay and good working conditions. Only experienced and adult craftsmen work in the companies from which they purchase their goods. No harmful chemicals are used in production. Since all work steps are carried out by hand, the production process hardly produces any greenhouse gas emissions. The employees from Germany ensure all of this through regular on-site visits and permanent personal contact with the companies.
