Wicker Trunks

Wicker trunks are elegant containers made from natural wicker that combine practical storage with distinctive aesthetics. Handwoven wicker chests are an excellent solution for people who value home organization while maintaining a natural interior character. Thanks to a sturdy construction with a closable lid, wicker containers provide secure storage for a variety of items — from bedding to toys.

Versatile uses of wicker containers

Natural wicker trunks have a wide range of uses across living spaces. At home they serve as bedding storage in the bedroom, stowage for blankets and cushions in the living room, and toy chests in children’s rooms. They also work perfectly as linen storage in bathrooms and for seasonal clothing in wardrobes.

In commercial spaces, handwoven trunks function as decorative storage in hotels, guesthouses and cafés, bringing warmth and a natural feel. Wicker chests are also suitable for terraces and balconies as containers for outdoor cushions, blankets or small tools. In offices they can be used as stylish containers for documents or office supplies, adding character to the interior.

Why choose natural wicker products?

Eco-friendly wicker trunks offer many unique benefits derived from the properties of the natural material. First and foremost, they are made from a renewable raw material, making them an environmentally friendly choice for conscious consumers. Natural wicker is breathable, providing adequate ventilation for stored items.

Another advantage is the exceptional durability of wicker chests — with proper care they can last for many years while retaining their functional and aesthetic qualities. Handwoven containers are lightweight yet sturdy, making them easy to move and rearrange.

Equally important is the versatile aesthetic appeal of wicker trunks — they suit a variety of interior styles, from rustic to modern, adding warmth and natural charm. Functional trunks are often equipped with convenient handles and metal springs to secure the lid, ensuring safe use.

How to properly care for wicker trunks?

Wicker trunk care doesn’t require complicated procedures, but regular maintenance significantly extends their lifespan. The most important step is regular dusting with a soft brush to remove dust from the weave’s crevices. For heavier soiling, simply wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding excessive wetting of the wicker. After cleaning, dry the trunk thoroughly in a well-ventilated place, away from direct heat sources.

A wealth of shapes and uses

The variety of wicker trunks and baskets allows you to match the product to personal needs, interior décor and intended use. The range includes both decorative trunks and capacious storage baskets in many sizes and finishing options. Decorative trunks in smaller dimensions with ornamental weaving are perfect as storage for jewelry, small items or wardrobe accessories, bringing a natural, rustic accent to the room.

For those who appreciate practical solutions, a great choice is the wicker basket with lining and wheels — a mobile container that can be easily moved between rooms. It’s ideal for the bathroom, wardrobe or children’s room as a laundry, toy or textile bin. A similar role is fulfilled by the wicker storage basket, available in various sizes, which helps keep the living room, bedroom and hallway tidy.

Functionality is increased by closed models — the wicker storage basket with lid and handles protects contents from dust and provides easy transport. Meanwhile, the wicker basket with lining, cushion, handles and lid can also serve as a seat, making it useful in an entryway or at a vanity as an attractive and practical furnishing element.

In bathrooms and laundries, the wicker laundry basket with lining, lid and handles performs exceptionally well — lightweight, breathable and roomy, it ensures user comfort and a neat appearance. Trunk-benches with reinforced construction can act as spacious storage while also serving as extra seating with a soft cushion.

For lovers of classic style and elegant accents, there is the wicker suitcase with handle and closure — stylish and functional, ideal for storing textiles, documents, travel accessories or decorative gifts. Smaller variants such as the wicker jewelry box or wicker basket with lid are perfect for those who value order and aesthetics — great on a vanity, desk or in a closet.

In terms of color, the collection includes natural wicker trunks and baskets as well as bleached, pastel and elegant wenge finishes. Additional linings, cushions or fabric inserts increase functionality and give the products a cozy character. Because of this, wicker trunks and baskets are not only practical storage solutions but also an aesthetic element of interior design, combining the tradition of handcraft with modern household needs.
