SUSTAINABLE STYLE with AJ Wells

Combining artistry, sustainability, and practicality, these simple, elegant Bodj baskets make beautiful additions to any fireplace. The stylish storage solutions are ideal for logs, kindling and wood pallets.

Behind each product lies a story of sustainability; the baskets and Rush Brush are hand-woven in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, using eco-friendly materials. Floppy Baskets are crafted from soft, steamed water hyacinth – a weed that clogs up waterways and chokes other plant life, while the Fat Lip Baskets are made using rattan – the harvesting of which provides an attractive alternative to logging timber, and so can help protect the native trees where it grows.

A seamless, unstructured basket, the Floppy Basket is very strong with a leathery texture and can be stored flat when not in use.
