This basket is woven from nypa palm, a plant that grows in the mangrove forests of Thailand.
We introduce a small cylindrical basket featuring an open weave pattern.


Many of the weavers are women in their 40s to 70s, though a few men are also involved.
As with Krajood basketry, although young weavers remain few, there is a renewed appreciation within Thailand for natural material products, and it seems that more young people are starting to take an interest in basketry.













This basket is just the right size to place in a corner of the room and use as a paper waste basket.
You may also set a plastic liner inside for easier use.

Alternatively, it works well as a plant pot cover.
Its open weave adds a refreshing, airy feel to any space.

While the material is relatively resistant to moisture,
we recommend using it indoors, in a well-ventilated area away from excess humidity.

We hope you enjoy the light and breezy charm of this nypa palm basket.

About Nypa Palm Craft in Southern Thailand
Along the western coast of the Malay Peninsula in southern Thailand, there are many soft, muddy wetlands.
There are also numerous mangrove forests that have developed in the brackish zones where river water and seawater mix.
Nypa palm, a member of the palm family, grows along the landward edge of these mangrove zones.
Compared to other freshwater palms, it is superior in strength and flexibility.
Nypa palm is fibrous, lightweight, and strong.
Its breathability and weather resistance make it a useful natural material in vegetation-rich regions,
where it is often used for roofing and walls.
The name “Nypa” comes from a Filipino word for this palm.
In local regions, it is commonly used to weave roofs and walls by combining its leaves with bamboo frameworks.
In Thailand, Nypa palm can be harvested year-round, and is used to create baskets, trays, scoops, and more.
The pieces introduced here are made in Trang Province, located on the western coast of the Malay Peninsula in southern Thailand.
