amuco Rattan and Bamboo Market Bag | A handmade basket found in Thailand that can be used for storage and carrying.
A rattan and bamboo market bag that can be used in two ways: for storage or as a bag.
It is lightweight and durable, and its slim, square shape makes it easy to carry, and it fits comfortably whether placed or hung.
Just by incorporating one item into your life, you can add the warmth of natural materials and a somewhat exotic atmosphere.
Thai handicrafts, developed with natural materials
The "amuco" series of handmade baskets, which we found in Thailand, is recommended for those who would like to quietly 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.
A reliable 2-way item that can be used as both storage and a bag.
The "Rattan Bamboo Market Bag" is a warm, one-of-a-kind item carefully woven by local artisans. It is a basket bag made from a combination of lightweight and durable rattan and bamboo, taking advantage of the natural texture of the materials.
As the name suggests, it is a market bag that can be used for shopping, but because it is tall, it can also be used to store plastic bottles and other stock items, or to roughly organize miscellaneous everyday items and subtly lighten the look of your everyday life.
The handle makes it easy to lift even when stored in a narrow space, making it a user-friendly design. This bag, which is made with handcrafted craftsmanship rooted in everyday life, will gently accompany you in your daily life.
Keep your bathroom area neat and tidy

The square, slim shape makes it ideal for storage in the bathroom.
It is also recommended to hang it on a hook on a towel bar or under a shelf and store a hair dryer, face towels, and spare towels.
The shape is not too deep, so it does not feel oppressive even in limited spaces, does not interfere with traffic flow, and fits neatly.
It adds a soft look that only natural materials can provide to bathroom spaces that tend to be functional.
As a visible storage unit, it can also be used as an accent piece in your interior.
If you put dried flowers or branches in it and decorate it, it will add a gentle accent to your room's interior. It is recommended to use it not only as a display storage but also as a display piece.
Available in 3 sizes for various uses
The small size is just right for a quick outing.
It can neatly store everyday items such as water bottles and hand towels. If you are concerned about the contents being visible, you can layer it with a drawstring bag to create a stylish outing bag.
The medium size is a convenient size that can hold a lunch box or blanket.
It's perfect for picnics, but it's also recommended for use as a display storage solution in your room. Its versatile size makes it useful for a variety of everyday life.
The L size is a reliable, large-capacity type that can hold a lot of things.
Its breathable design makes it perfect for storing fruits and vegetables. It can also be used as a market bag or for outdoor activities like camping and leisure.
A piece that breathes delicate weaving and structural beauty, and is close to your everyday life
The sides of the body are decorated with a hexagonal openwork pattern created using the traditional "kikko-ami" technique, also seen in Japanese bamboo crafts, resulting in a lightweight and breathable finish. Combined with the three-dimensional form, this creates a natural and soft impression.
The edges and handles are firmly hemmed for easy grip and durability.
The bottom is made of a lattice weave of crossed bamboo, making it both flexible and strong.
The four corners are reinforced with a three-dimensional cross weave, so you can use it with confidence even when carrying heavy luggage. The cute, slightly raised legs add a touch of individuality to the bag's appearance when placed down.
It has a smooth, comfortable texture, and by caring for it in a well-ventilated place, the texture will deepen, making it an attractive item that you can grow to love as your own personal tool.
*Please be careful when putting cloth items in the bag as they may get caught on the fibers.
The amuco series is carefully woven by artisans and is rooted in everyday life.
We also have many other baskets purchased in Thailand available.
If you want something compact that you can easily carry around, choose a basket with a handle.
If you're looking for a storage solution that's tall enough to hold all your everyday items, we recommend a square basket without handles.
We hope you find one that you like.
