Moroccan Baskets

The Moroccan wicker basket has become over the years a timeless accessory. It defies time. Every summer, it can be seen on the arms of women on the beach or at the market. It never goes out of style. Above all, the Moroccan wicker basket is both simple and chic. It has simple and modest origins. And yet it is also found in more affluent circles and in influencer spheres. It is worn in the city as well as in the countryside or at the sea. It is universal. We never get tired of it. And this for several reasons.

A basket with multiple uses

First, the Moroccan wicker basket is ultra practical. It has a large loading capacity. For the beach, you can stuff several essential items in it: towels, swimsuits, sunglasses, sunscreen, books or magazines. For the market, you add all the groceries to the wicker basket as you shop. It does not have pockets or cases and you can quickly see its contents. Its handles are easy to grip. The Moroccan wicker basket can be carried by hand or on the shoulder, depending on the weight and desire. It is very comfortable, it does not hurt the shoulders. Its leather handles are pleasant to wear.

Several versions for the Moroccan wicker basket

The Moroccan wicker basket is now available in several models. The dimensions differ little from one model to another. Most Moroccan wicker baskets have a length between 45 and 53 cm and a height between 32 and 34 cm.

The original wicker basket

The basic version of the Moroccan wicker basket is immediately recognizable. The plain, raw basket is equipped with rounded leather handles. These are attached by "legs" that have a characteristic rectangular shape. The attachment is solid. The basket in its best-known version is unlined.

Sequined wicker baskets

You will find the models in gold or silver sequins. This is a more fashionable and trendy version of the traditional wicker basket. These baskets are hemmed with a leather strap. The handles are made of dark brown leather. These baskets have a lining. They have a more sophisticated look. They are perfect for evenings or the city.

Embroidered wicker baskets

The Ibiza wicker basket and the Raspberry wicker basket are two versions of the same model. Only the colors change. This is a basket embroidered with simple graphic patterns (crosses), flowers and leaves. The Ibiza basket has green and blue tones while the Raspberry basket offers red, orange and pink tones. These two baskets, thanks to their floral patterns and cheerful colors, are perfect for going to the market, shopping, getting bread or the newspaper. They are baskets for everyday use.

Wicker baskets with openwork finishes

In a more elaborate and precise version, you will find the wicker baskets with braided and openwork edges. The outline of the basket ends with an elegant openwork band. These baskets have the same embroidery and patterns as the embroidered baskets but with more subtle or thematic shades or color mixes. The Printemps basket is blue and pink. The Charbon and Cendré baskets are gold and silver, with the embroidery and patterns highlighted in black.
