Savar Bread Basket with White Handle | Handwoven Seagrass & Jute | Fair Trade | Savar, Bangladesh | Korissa

Woven by skilled hands in Bangladesh, carried to your table with purpose and beauty. ✨

Savar is a city on the outskirts of Dhaka, Bangladesh — a place where the ancient craft of basket weaving has been practiced for generations, passed from mother to daughter, from village elder to apprentice, in the quiet rhythm of skilled hands working natural materials into something both useful and beautiful. The women and men who weave in Savar’s artisan communities are not factory workers. They are craftspeople — people who know the feel of seagrass between their fingers, who understand how to coax a flat weave into a strong, graceful form, who take pride in every basket that leaves their hands.

The Savar Bread Basket is the work of those hands. Woven from natural seagrass with a white jute handle, it is warm, organic, and beautifully textured — the kind of piece that looks as though it has always belonged on your table. Use it to serve bread at dinner, to hold napkins and cutlery at a party, to organize the kitchen counter, the bathroom shelf, the craft room, the office. Its uses are as generous as the spirit in which it was made.
