Description

Designed to bring both structure and softness to your space, the Elgin Rattan Magazine Basket offers a refined solution for organising everyday reading materials. With its clean, upright shape and integrated handles, this handwoven basket combines practicality with considered design.

Crafted from premium natural rattan by skilled artisans, the Elgin basket features a tightly woven construction that ensures durability while maintaining a structured, architectural silhouette. Its tall, open form makes it ideal for storing magazines, books, and paperwork, keeping them neatly organised yet easily accessible.

The balanced proportions and subtle texture allow it to sit effortlessly alongside sofas, armchairs, or within shelving, adding warmth and depth without overwhelming a space. Whether used in a living room, home office, or reading corner, it introduces a calm, curated feel to everyday organisation.

Timeless in both function and form, the Elgin magazine basket is designed to elevate even the simplest storage moments.

Materials & Craftmanship

Each piece in our rattan collection begins with carefully selected natural rattan — a fast-growing climbing palm valued for its strength, flexibility and enduring beauty.

Sourced from responsibly managed regions in Southeast Asia, rattan offers a naturally renewable alternative to traditional hardwoods, requiring minimal intervention to transform into something both durable and refined.

Every piece is handwoven by skilled artisans, using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations. A solid rattan core provides structure, while finer strands are carefully shaped and woven to create the intricate textures and sculptural forms that define each design.

Once formed, each piece is finished by hand and left to dry naturally, enhancing its strength and longevity. Subtle variations in tone, weave and texture are part of the process — and part of what makes every piece unique.

Lightweight yet durable, tactile yet timeless, our rattan is designed to bring warmth and depth into your home for years to come.

Care Instructions

Rattan Care Guide

Crafted from premium natural rattan, each piece is designed to be both durable and timeless. With the right care, your rattan will maintain its structure and character for years to come.

How to Care for Your Rattan

  • Dust regularly using a soft, dry cloth or a gentle brush to remove surface debris from the weave
  • Wipe clean with a lightly damp cloth when needed, ensuring the basket is not overly saturated
  • Keep away from prolonged exposure to moisture or humidity, as natural rattan can weaken over time
  • Avoid placing in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading or drying of the fibres
  • Do not use harsh chemicals, sprays, or abrasive cleaners on the surface
  • Suitable for indoor use only

A Natural Material

Rattan is a natural material, meaning subtle variations in tone, texture, and weave are to be expected. These are not imperfections, but part of the character that makes each piece unique.

Sustainability

We believe the most sustainable homes are built slowly — filled with pieces chosen with care and made to last.

Rattan is one of the most renewable materials used in homeware. As a fast-growing climbing palm, it regenerates quickly without the need for replanting and can be harvested with minimal impact on surrounding ecosystems.

Our pieces are made using predominantly hand-led processes, reducing reliance on energy-intensive production methods while supporting skilled artisan communities.

Designed with longevity in mind, each piece moves beyond seasonal trends. Instead, it offers a timeless foundation — reducing the need for replacement and encouraging a more considered way of living.

Natural materials, thoughtful craftsmanship and enduring design — this is sustainability in its simplest, most honest form.
