Its round, organic shape and banana fiber weave give the basket a warm boho look, while contrasting stitching details provide a unique and artisanal character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the removable lid, you can easily store laundry, toys, blankets, or other items out of sight. This keeps your interior calm and tidy, without having to hide a practical storage basket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALEM is available in \u003cstrong\u003eM, L, and XL\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it suitable for various places and uses in the home. From extra storage in the bedroom or children's room to a generous laundry basket for the whole family. The different sizes can also be nested when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSturdy yet airy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the inside, a metal frame ensures the basket maintains its characteristic round shape. The sturdy banana fibers are carefully woven around and attached to this frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe open-weave structure allows air to circulate easily. This makes PALEM particularly suitable for laundry and other textiles where ventilation is desirable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom banana plant to handmade basket\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe banana fibers used for PALEM come from banana plants in Indonesia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring growth, the fibrous outer layer of the trunk is released. These fibers are collected and then dried in the sun for about a week. During this natural drying process, the characteristic warm, deep brown color develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter drying, the fibers are rolled into sturdy strands about 6 mm thick. Experienced artisans then carefully weave them by hand around a specially crafted metal frame that determines the shape and dimensions of the basket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor extra strength, the fibers are attached to the frame with transparent nylon thread. According to Soeji, it takes an average of about \u003cstrong\u003etwo hours to handcraft one PALEM basket\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eArtisanally made in Java\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALEM is handmade in the Indonesian province of Central Java.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoeji collaborates with small family businesses of about 20 to 30 employees for this. According to the brand, when selecting these production partners, attention is paid to fair pay, safe working conditions, and reasonable working hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baskets are made by adult and experienced craftspeople. This way, older artisans who can no longer work in agriculture can continue to use their traditional skills and pass them on to the next generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince almost all production steps are performed by hand, relatively little machine energy is required during production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 33 cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 40 cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: approx. 1.86 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 43 cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 45 cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: approx. 2.98 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 55 cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 50 cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: approx. 4.28 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe height is measured without the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause each basket is handmade and natural materials are used, small differences in color, shape, and dimensions may occur.
