This sculptural basket was woven by hand in Luzon, up in the remote Philippine highlands. Baskets like these were used to store dry rice or beans. They were often hung from hooks near a family’s fireplace, and so the rattan was naturally darkened by soot and then burnished over time from use, displaying character only acquired with age.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
