Extra Large Wicker Oval Baskets - Set of 3

This Extra Large Wicker Oval Baskets set includes three generously sized nesting baskets, perfect for classroom storage and creating a warm, nature-inspired environment. Crafted from natural wicker, each basket features a chunky weave and sturdy rope handles, offering a rustic yet functional addition to early years learning spaces. These baskets are ideal for storing large loose parts, building blocks, soft toys, or manipulatives, supporting an organised and inviting setting that encourages independent exploration and responsibility.

Their extra-large size makes them suitable for storing bulkier resources, promoting spatial awareness, planning and self-directed use of materials.
