Tenganan Basket Tray

Intricate yet with an elegantly simple weave, the woven Tenganan Basket Tray makes a stunning and functional accent piece. This basket tray can be styled on your coffee table or ottoman with your favorite candle, matchbook and accessories, set on a bedside table as a catch all, or used to organize your bathroom counter or vanity. A serious multi-tasker, it can also be used for entertaining as a serving tray.

Each Tenganan basket tray is handwoven in the village of Tenganan, Bali using natural Ata reed. The fast-growing Ata reed has to be separated into small, thin strands. Then skilled artisans intricately weave the strands into baskets and woven homewares, working on one basket for up to a month. Once fully woven, the weavings are boiled and left in the sun to dry for a week. Finally, to strengthen the weave, condition the fibers, and leave a natural finish, they are smoked over coconut shell clippings. A true dedication to craft to make these woven objects.
