Woven Rattan for Your Eggs

Set on the edge of a counter or brought back straight from the coop, a good egg basket is recognized by the firmness of its weave and the feel of its handle in your hand. This retro rattan egg basket is shaped by hand from raw natural rattan, selected for its suppleness and lasting strength. The strands cross tightly, forming a sturdy shell that protects the eggs without squeezing them, while the lid keeps them covered. Its old fashioned rounded shape suits a farmhouse kitchen as well as a contemporary interior that embraces its roots.

Natural Rattan for Fresh Eggs

Collecting eggs from the coop every morning takes on a whole new dimension with a container designed for that daily gesture. Woven by hand in natural rattan, this lidded egg basket lets air circulate between the strands, which helps keep the eggs fresh after collection. The lid protects them from light and dust on the counter. Once back inside, it naturally finds its place on a counter or an open shelf, where its natural texture and vintage lines fit effortlessly into a kitchen.

A Classic That Never Ages

Some materials cross the decades without ever losing their place in our homes, and rattan is one of them. Sturdy and naturally warm, it suits a country kitchen as well as a pared back contemporary space. This retro woven egg basket draws its strength from that elegant neutrality: it does not try to stand out, it fits in. The tight hand weave gives it a lasting strength, far beyond a decorative accessory. On a counter or a shelf, it reminds you that well made objects do not need to follow trends to stay right.

Frequently asked questions

How big is the egg basket?

It measures about 5.1 in (13 cm) across. It holds about six to eight eggs, depending on their size, or small kitchen items like garlic and shallots.

Should eggs be stored on the counter?

In the US, store bought eggs are washed and should be refrigerated. Fresh, unwashed eggs from a backyard coop can be kept on the counter for a short time; use the basket to collect and display them.

What else can I use it for?

It makes a charming box for tea bags, garlic and shallots, sewing supplies, jewelry or small treasures on a shelf.

How do I clean a rattan basket?

Remove dust with a soft brush or the brush attachment of your vacuum, then wipe with a slightly damp cloth and let it air dry. Avoid soaking it or leaving it in direct sun for long periods.
