A light basket that is easy to hold

A Scandinavian Hemslojd bread basket that you can just casually put in the bread you always eat. The basket, made by carefully bending bright alder wood, gives a warm impression that is typical of Scandinavian design, and creates a comfortable place for families to gather.

Basket that makes the space look bright

The oval-shaped bread basket is relatively deep, and it is convenient to hold it with both hands. Breads bought at the store, such as bread and baguettes, may be difficult to put in place, and you may be worried about the appearance of life, but just putting them in this basket will make them look fashionable.

Alder wood (alder), which is the material, is characterized by its bright and gentle color and clean grain, and is widely used as a material for furniture and musical instruments in Europe. Also, because it is made of soft wood, it can be curved like a bread basket. The sides of the basket are accented with Alder cross-stitch. The finish is soaked in plenty of oil, so even though it is a natural material, it is also convenient where it does not get dirty easily.

It is made as a basket for bread, but of course it is also useful for other storage. It can be held like a tray, so in the kitchen, for example, you can put a tea set in it to carry or store it, or put it in a fruit holder. As an interior accessory to put small items such as cosmetics in the bedroom. It's also a good place to put remote controls that tend to have nowhere to go in the living room. The design fits naturally into the space, so it comes in handy in various places.

Since they are all made of natural materials, the colors and grain appearance are different one by one. Also, since it is a soft wood, be careful not to drop it or hit it. It is an item that you will want to keep using for a long time.

Bringing Scandinavian life to the world

Scandinavian Hemslojd was founded in 1995 in the suburbs of Stockholm, Sweden. A Finnish-Swedish Urla and her daughter Anna are a woodworking company that started to protect and convey the traditional crafts of Scandinavia. Together with local craftsmen, we work on products that are particular about materials, manufacturing processes, and quality.

Beautiful trees such as alder and juniper are spread in Scandinavia, and Scandinavian Hemslojd uses them as materials to create products that have been used in daily life for a long time. The traditional Nordic manufacturing methods, such as choosing wood with less deviation and bactericidal action, and assembling only with wood without using metal, are similar to traditional Japanese crafts. While using sustainable wood as a material, it is a product that is close to our daily lives and has taken root in the way it is used, not disposable, but sometimes oiled and maintained.
