As these baskets are individually crafted by hand from natural fibers, slight variations in size, color and shape may occur.
Materials & feel
The main material is water hyacinth, a fast-growing tropical aquatic plant. The leaves are removed and the thick stems are sun-dried for three to seven days before weaving, producing a sustainable raw material with authentic natural scent and texture. Cotton thread is used for the decorative and reinforcing pattern.
Sustainability note
Water hyacinth is abundant and often considered invasive in many waterways. Harvesting and processing it for woven goods provides an environmentally responsible use for this plant. The manual production process minimizes greenhouse gas emissions, and no harmful chemicals are used.
Production site & ethical standards
PRAYA is handmade in Java, Indonesia, by experienced adult artisans. We select local producers who provide fair pay and safe working conditions. All production steps are performed by hand, and we maintain these standards through regular on-site visits and ongoing personal contact with our partner workshops.
Care & usage tips
To keep your basket looking its best, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heavy moisture. Lightly dust or wipe with a dry cloth. When used as a plant basket, place a waterproof liner or saucer between the pot and the basket to protect the fibers.
PRAYA blends functionality and aesthetic appealâbringing durable, eco-friendly craftsmanship into your home while supporting traditional weaving communities.
