The large Rook basket is the one that actually swallows a living-room throw pile. Coiled banana leaf and raffia in mixed straw, tan, and cream, with a paler vertical panel running down the face and two loop handles at the rim. It sits on the floor beside a sofa the way a storage ottoman would, without asking the rest of the room to match it. Browse more in our decor and home decor.

Styling
Park it on the floor at the end of a sofa in the living room and drop in folded throws, extra pillows, or a knit. The cream panel wants something pale nearby (unbleached linen, a light oak table) so the weave doesn't flatten into one brown mass. The dark-striped medium Rook and the smaller mixed-tone Rook sit well as a stepped trio along a wall, or keep this large one alone if the room only has space for one. It also works in a bedroom at the foot of the bed for extra blankets, or in an entry for scarves and hats once the weather turns. More in home accents.
Because the coils are a natural fiber, no two baskets read exactly the same. That variation is the point: it looks collected, not catalog-matched to the sofa. Pair it with warm wood, a vintage rug, and one confident accent (teal, terracotta, or sage) and the basket recedes into the room instead of shouting storage.
Care
- Dust with a dry, lint-free cloth
- Indoor use only. Keep out of sustained rain and sprinklers
- Natural fiber tone varies from piece to piece
- Do not overload past the rim, and do not store wet towels in it
- If a coil snags, ease it back into place rather than pulling
