The Story Behind It

The Versatility of Abaca

Closely related to the banana plant, but oddly enough considered an herb, the abaca plant is an indigenous material of the Philippines often used to create everything from baskets and clothing to tea bags and banknotes. Abaca plants usually reach between 10 and 15 feet in height, and grow with great speed, making their fiber a terrific renewable resource - one of the reasons why we're big fans!

Abaca is perfectly suited to the construction of our artisanal handmade Madras Baskets, serving trays, drink coasters and more. To create these beautiful eco-conscious baskets, madras (the bark of the abaca plant) is harvested in long, flexible strips that range in color from light brown to nearly black. When woven into baskets, the color variation shows up with an almost marbled look, which gives each item its own unique look.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Monchichibella Excellent Space Saver This was such a neat little drawer which fit in a small corner. It is stylish and the color is great. The only setback is that when the drawers are opened and closed, there are small pieces of the material that fall on the floor; it's minor though! January 27, 2014

Rated 3 out of 5 by dhut flimsey this works for my needs but I wouldn't recommend for high usage as drawers do not slide very well April 17, 2013
