This set of three tall nesting baskets offers a practical and cost effective way of adding storage and texture to the home. This Pebble set has baskets made from both natural and coloured jute and is inspired by the shingle beaches of the British coastline.
Why we love it
Features a little fabric ReSpiin label stitched onto the rim. Each basket in this Pebble set is inspired by the natural colours of a pebble beach, and is ideal for adding texture and interest to any decor. Comes with recyclable swing tag.
The sewing thread used in this product is made of 70% polyester and 30% cotton. It cannot be 100% cotton thread as this will not tolerate the sewing machine tension needed to be able to stitch the seagrass and jute into place.
Please note due to the hand made nature of this product, sizes will vary in height and diameter from item to item.
Approximate size:
Large natural/white stripe basket - 13.5cm x 18.5cm diameter
Medium black basket - 11cm x 14cm diameter
Small natural/white stripe basket - 8.5cm x 10cm diameter
Wipe clean only. Avoid damp environments.
Jute plants are easy to grow, have a high yield per acre and, unlike cotton, have little need for pesticides and fertilisers. Jute grows during the rainy season in Bangladesh which is from June to October. The plants are ready to harvest in four to six months, after the flowers are shed.
The fibres lie beneath the bark around the woody core. To extract the fibre, the jute bundles are submersed in water and left for a few days until the fibres come loose and are ready for stripping from the stalk, then washed and dried. This is what the ReSpiin baskets are made from. The remaining jute stalks can be used in a similar way to wood pulp, or work well as a renewable source of cooking fuel.
Jute plants help to clean the air. During growth they take in three times more CO2 than the average tree, converting this CO2 into oxygen. Jute plants also enrich the soil. As these plants grow fast, they are often used in crop rotation. The leaves and roots left after harvest enrich the soil with micronutrients, maintaining soil fertility. Jute is 100% biodegradable.
The producer of the baskets in Bangladesh is committed to providing regular employment in a working environment that is safe and hygienic. They pay a living wage to all employees. They have developed an innovative way of producing jute rope and stylish jute baskets which means that can produce a much higher return from the jute than when it is sold for basic jute sacks. ReSpiin has visited the producer of the baskets and has seen first hand how they take pride in what they produce and in how they treat their workers.

Can’t express enough the quality of the baskets I ordered. Excellent communication and delivery. Won’t hesitate to order other items.
I bought the winter solstice hot chocolate, which was absolutely delicious. Ordering process was quick and simple, and the product was delivered 3 days from order, wrapped in nice packaging.
Will definitely be shopping here again as the product was so tasty.
I ordered a Kantha scarf and some chocolates, all absolutely beautiful and efficient delivery.
I purchased these laundry sheets as I do not now use washing powder. I also have a septic tank, which I am very conscientious about. I have looked at other sheets which require transport, but as these claim to be made in the UK I am all for cutting down the carbon footprint.
