One of the greatest benefits of urban living is the freedom to walk everywhere and I, of course, take full advantage of this.

This is why I love the French Market Shopping Basket. Shaped like an upside-down bonnet, it’s handwoven in sturdy palm leaf with a comfortable leather handle.

French Market Shopping Basket

This is a large, simple and practical basket which is as good for a trip to the beach as it is doing your supermarket shop. It has a big capacity with strong short leather handles. If you leave it in the back of your car you never need to be caught without a bag again.

From Market to Table

Also great as unusual storage around the house.
