The Round basket, manufactured and designed by Tuulia Penttilä, creates a unique and multi-purpose setting for small storage. Crafted glue-free with the saddle-stitched method, the basket is made of thin birch plywood and finished with a playful leather strap. The soft-shaped design and simplistic appearance of the basket suit well for home storage or display. Due to its lightness, the Round basket travels with you also on daily errands.
