Le tote.
Be the envy of all the produce mavens at your local farmer’s market with this hand-woven palm leaf basket. The flat bottom keeps the bag standing on its own while you carefully select the best peaches and the double-woven top edge gives it an extra sturdy finish. Two sets of leather straps allow you to swing it casually over your shoulder or carry it in hand. Either way, you’ll look très chic!

Such a dreamy basket!
This basket is large enough for groceries and will make an amazing picnic basket or beach bag as well. It lives up to all my cottagecore fantasies of strolling through bucolic towns or farmers markets with flowers and a baguette in my basket! Until it’s warm enough for that, it’s proudly hung on my wall looking glamorous and reminding me of life after this pandemic winter.
Beautiful basket
What a great basket! Got this as a gift for my daughter. She loves it! Wonderful quality, color and I love the double handles. So perfect for weekend Farmers Market runs or to decorate with! Highly recommend!
can carry a lot
If you are a Francophile like me you must get this bag! It can hold literally everything. I have been using it for the beach and grocery store. Well constructed and sturdy. Très chic!
