Round baskets make you roll your blankets. This one doesn't. The 22x14x18 inch (56x36x46 cm) rectangular shape takes comforters, throws and pillows folded flat, and a matching woven cover drops over the top so the mess disappears and the blankets stay dust free.

The body is double-woven from about 6 lbs of thick natural rope with no frame inside: soft cotton, smooth to the touch with nothing prickly, with true jute strands in the jute colourways. Rope handles are woven directly into the body, so there is nothing bolted on to loosen; grab them to slide or carry a full load between rooms. The handwoven Navy Blue finish settles into boho, modern-farmhouse and minimalist rooms alike.

A note on arrival: like all woven rope baskets, it ships folded and compressed, and may show creases from packaging. Unfolding it is easy, and there is more than one way to do it: stuff it with pillows or blankets for a day or two, pass a hand steamer over the creases while gently stretching, or simply push the folds out and shape the sides by hand. Once opened up, its thick rope sides stand on their own, and it looks fullest with blankets inside.

Beyond blankets it earns its keep as a playroom catch-all for awkward shapes, a yarn and craft-supply store, or spare-bedding storage in the closet. Care is simple: spot clean with a damp cloth.

Built to be used for years, not seasons.

  • Blankets lie flat, not rolled — at 22x14x18 inches (56x36x46 cm), about the footprint of a carry-on suitcase, the rectangular shape takes folded blankets, comforters and pillows the way a round basket cannot; measure your spot before you order
  • Opens up after one easy unfold — it ships folded flat, so stuff it with blankets for a day, steam the creases, or push the sides out by hand; once opened up, the thick double-woven rope sides stand on their own, and the basket looks fullest when filled
  • The lid hides the mess — a matching drop-on cover keeps blankets, spare bedding and clutter out of sight and dust free, so the room looks finished even when the basket is stuffed full
  • Rope handles woven into the body — grab the built-in side handles to slide or carry the full basket from room to room; nothing bolted on to loosen or snap, easy to move even packed heavy
  • An investment that lasts years — about 6 lbs of dense natural rope and no plastic frame: soft, smooth cotton with nothing prickly, plus true jute strands in the jute colourways; the weight you feel on arrival is the quality you paid for
  • Roomy for awkward loads — the woven rope walls take bulky odds and ends, yarn stashes and craft supplies in the playroom or nursery, and a quick push by hand sets them straight again
  • Decor-worthy in every room — the handwoven Navy Blue finish settles into boho, modern-farmhouse and minimalist spaces; three baskets of the same family make a matching set and a warm housewarming gift

Ships

Folded flat, in a small box

It arrives folded. Two minutes later it stands up.

Every basket ships flat to keep it out of a bigger box. Pull the sides apart, push the base down, then press each corner out from the inside — the corners are what make this shape sit square, so they are worth a moment.

It comes out pressed flat. That is on purpose — it keeps the shipping box small.

Flat sides, so there is no wasted gap.

A round basket against a wall leaves a crescent of dead floor on each side, and two round baskets side by side leave another between them. This one does not. That is the entire reason the shape exists.

If the basket is going to stand on its own in the middle of a room rather than against something, the round shapes look better doing it.

The material

Corners without a frame.

A square shape usually needs something rigid to hold its corners. This one does not — the rope is double-woven and 10 mm thick, and the corners are woven tighter than the flats so they hold their own angle. It weighs variant.weight empty, and the box it arrives in weighs about the same. No wire, no cardboard, no plastic liner.

How much does it hold?

20 inches tall, 15 across. Smaller than the laundry baskets and shaped to sit against something rather than stand alone — under a console, at the end of a bed, or two of them side by side on a shelf.

Fourteen colourways, photographed in daylight with no colour correction. Flat sides show more of the weave than a curved one does, so the two-tones read strongest on this shape.

Will it match your room?

Fourteen colourways, photographed in daylight with no colour correction. Flat sides show more of the weave than a curved one does, so the two-tones read strongest on this shape.

22 colourways, photographed in daylight and adjusted for brightness only. Naturals and jute for warm rooms; a two-tone if the pattern should do the work; rust, the greys and navy if it shouldn't.

Two ways to close this shape

Same 20"×15" basket, same flat sides. The difference is the lid, and one of them brings a zip with it.

Lifts straight off. Nothing in the basket but rope, and the lid doubles as a tray if you set it down flat.

Who makes this

You probably arrived from a search. Here's who we are.

Cottonphant makes one thing: storage baskets woven from 100% natural cotton rope. Every basket is handwoven and shaped by hand. Six shapes, up to thirty colours each — and no frames, liners or wicker anywhere in the range.

How a basket gets made

The five things people ask about this shape

Why does it arrive flat?

To keep the shipping box small. Pull the sides apart, push the base down and run your hand around the rim — about a minute — and it holds that shape from then on, empty or full.

Will it stand up on its own?

Yes. The rope is double-woven and thick enough to hold the shape without a frame, a liner or a plastic ring. It stays upright empty as well as full.

Will the colour look like the photograph?

Every colourway is photographed in daylight and adjusted for brightness only, never colour-corrected per basket. Each swatch on this page is a photograph of the rope itself.

How do I clean it?

Spot-clean with a damp cloth and let it air-dry. It is cotton rope with nothing inside it, so there is no liner or frame to damage.
