amuco Rattan Bamboo Flower Bowl - A handmade piece found in Thailand that blends seamlessly into everyday life
The "amuco" series of handmade baskets, discovered in Thailand, is recommended for those who would like to incorporate everyday items that connect them to somewhere in the world into their lives.
Not only can it be used easily for storage or when going out, but incorporating one into your daily life will bring a touch of exoticism and make you feel as if the world has suddenly expanded. Such small changes will bring a comfortable space into your daily life.
Thailand, where we purchased our products, is located in Southeast Asia and is a country with a rich natural environment and a long history. It is rich in tropical natural materials, and rattan and bamboo have long been used in a wide range of household items, furniture, bags, and other handicrafts. Their lightweight and durable bags are popular for shopping and outings.
Enjoy a high-rise display
The "Rattan Bamboo Flower Bowl" is a warm, one-of-a-kind item, carefully woven one by one by local artisans. Combining light and durable rattan and bamboo, this basket makes the most of the natural texture of the materials. This basket, which embodies the craftsmanship rooted in everyday life, will gently accompany you in your daily life.
It's more like a tray than a basket, and it's flat and spacious, making it perfect for storing items you want to access quickly.
It doesn't need to be as deep as a basket, but if it's low like a tray it will get hidden by other items around it. This design is perfect for situations like that.
For example, you can keep fruit visible without having to put it away, making it easier to reach for and less likely to spoil. Another great thing about the height is that it's less likely to get buried and is more likely to catch your eye.
By taking advantage of the height and adding some greenery with drooping vines, you can neatly store even voluminous plants, creating an appearance that gives a sense of natural flow even without hanging them.It also creates a pleasant rhythm when placed on a desk or cabinet.
Various uses
If you place combs, hair accessories, etc. on it in front of a mirror, it will become a special corner, just like a dressing table.
Placing a vase in the center and arranging flowers will add a touch of elegance to the space.It also works well as a stand for fruits and sweets, and we recommend decorating it with seasonal flowers and fruits for a fun display.
They are also perfect for displaying socks and other small items in a store. The breathable rattan material is light and looks great, and blends naturally into a variety of spaces, both Japanese and Western.
It has a three-dimensional beauty like a flower and a reliable structure.
The body is woven from rattan of different thicknesses, creating a three-dimensional form that resembles a blooming flower.
The rounded, dish-shaped top is the perfect shape for beautifully displaying fruits, snacks, small items, etc. The tall design adds a light accent to the space just by placing it on a table or shelf.
The body is made of thin, flexible rattan, intricately woven in a triangular pattern, achieving mechanical stability similar to the "truss structure" used in architecture. Despite its delicate appearance, it boasts surprising durability, with a resilient structure that flexes and absorbs loads and returns to its original shape.
The pillars and base are also woven to make the most of the space, achieving both visual lightness and physical stability. The texture of natural materials and meticulously calculated structural beauty are combined to create a truly beautiful piece that combines function and beauty.
