Product Story
∨
There's something about a basket by the fire that makes a house feel like a home. Not styled. Not perfect. Just lived in.
The Amphora sits quietly in the corner, holding logs through the winter months, then blankets when the fire isn't lit. It doesn't demand attention—it earns its place through use, not decoration. The kind of piece you reach for without thinking, that becomes part of your daily rhythm.
Kubu grey rattan weathers beautifully. It darkens slightly near the hearth, softens with handling, gathers the patina of a life well-lived. The Cordura lining keeps bark and dust contained, so you're not sweeping the floor every time you restock.
This is for people who choose things that last. Those who value craft over trends. Who understand that the best pieces are the ones you stop noticing—until they're not there.

Frequently Asked Questions
›
Q: Is this suitable for outdoor use?
A: The Amphora is designed for indoor fireside use. While Kubu rattan is naturally durable, prolonged exposure to rain or direct moisture will shorten its lifespan.
Q: Will the Cordura lining prevent mess on my floor?
A: Yes. The Cordura lining is designed to contain bark, dust and debris, keeping your hearth clean.
Q: Can I use this for storage other than logs?
A: Absolutely. Many customers use it for blankets, toys, laundry or magazines when not storing firewood.
Q: Why does the colour vary slightly from the photos?
A: Kubu rattan is a natural material, handwoven by artisans. Subtle variations in tone and texture are normal and part of the basket's character.
Q: How much weight can it hold?
A: The Amphora is robust and designed to carry a full load of logs. The ear handles and reinforced base make it suitable for heavy, daily use.
