amuco Bamboo Handle Basket - 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.
A highly decorative bowl-shaped container that is easy to store items in.
The "Bamboo Handle Basket" is a warm, one-of-a-kind item, carefully woven one by one by local artisans. Crafted from lightweight, durable, and beautifully woven bamboo, it is a basket with a handle that makes the most of the natural texture of the material. It is a piece that embodies the craftsmanship rooted in everyday life and will be a part of your daily life.
The arched handle and detailed weaving create a beautiful, picturesque atmosphere. The wooden legs at the bottom increase stability and breathability. In the kitchen, it can be used to display fruits, vegetables, and other room-temperature foods.
The deep bowl shape allows you to store everyday tools and glasses inside while still providing ample privacy and making them easy to access.
Also great as an accent in your room
Its beautiful appearance shows that it has been carefully crafted, and just having it there will add a gentle accent to your room's interior.
In addition to being used as a display storage unit, it is also recommended to use it as a display fixture.
The beauty of knitting creates the beauty of utility
The main body is woven from rattan and bamboo, and is woven in a "gozame" pattern, alternating top and bottom, with the upper part woven in a uniform pattern and the lower part slightly different, creating a dynamic look. Another key feature is the smooth weave on the surface.
The two handles are double-braided for easy grip and durability, and the smooth texture feels comfortable to the touch.
The base is made of cross-shaped wooden pieces, minimizing the contact area with the floor and improving ventilation and moisture control. The four corners are reinforced with a three-dimensional cross weave, adding a design accent.
Rattan and bamboo baskets carefully woven by artisans, rooted in everyday life
We also have a large selection of baskets purchased in Thailand.
For those who want to add a touch of cuteness to their home, we recommend the Rattan Bamboo Handle Basket, which has a similar shape. The contrast between the woven pattern and the material creates a gorgeous, high-quality appearance. The design makes it a great accent piece for a simple space.
The Bicolor Handle Basket also has a handle and is perfect for those who want to store things more loosely. Its horizontal shape makes it easy to fit on a shelf, and it combines design with practicality.

If you're looking for storage with ample capacity, we also recommend the Laundry Basket and Market Bag. The Market Bag in particular, although it's called a "bag," is tall and provides just enough concealment to hide the contents, making it perfect for organizing small everyday items. It also looks great in the entryway or living room.
