The Guapi Cartagena Basket is a beautifully sculptural piece, distinguished by its deep charcoal tones, intricate geometric weave and softly structured silhouette.
Handcrafted by artisans from the Eperãarã Siapidaarã community in Guapi, Colombia, each basket is woven from natural chocolatillo and paja tetera fibres using techniques rooted in generations of traditional craftsmanship.
The subtle interplay of dark tones and woven textures gives the Cartagena a quiet depth, while its generous proportions and distinctive curved handles create a striking architectural form.
Designed to make an impression without overwhelming a space, it looks particularly beautiful against traditional panelling, aged timber and natural stone. Style it in an entrance hall with delicate branches, beside an antique cabinet or simply on its own, allowing the craftsmanship to take centre stage.
Both decorative and functional, the Cartagena embodies our belief in collecting fewer, more meaningful objects, pieces chosen for their character, craftsmanship and enduring beauty.
