Fair Trade. Guaranteed. 100% of our products are made with a process guaranteed by the World Fair Trade Organization.
Our baskets are sturdy, strong, and flexible, made to withstand constant use. If properly cared for, your basket will live a long life.
Dust your woven basket on a regular basis, wiping with a damp cloth if necessary. No other cleaning should be necessary.
Changes in temperature and humidity may cause your basket to expand and contract, which may make securing the lid difficult at times. Be patient and wait for the weather to change or remove from areas with high humidity (like bathrooms).

Beautiful and well made.
This basket is even more beautiful and sturdy than I expected. I am using it to store text books and other papers, with some pretty blankets on top to hide everything. I would buy more baskets of this style.
Absolutely beautiful!
This basket is perfect. I am in love with it. It’s incredibly well made and I’m sure it will last a very long time. Couldn’t be happier.
United StatesBeautiful products and service!
This is a great basket, very sturdy. And heavy. I was looking for a laundry basket, which this was too heavy for, which is why I returned it. Seems great if you're using it for storage and not moving it a lot.
United StatesExactly what I was looking for!
After searching for the perfect sized basket (most are either too small or oversized) - this was the winner! Great size & quality. First time I have ordered from The Citizenry & I could not be more pleased.
United StatesBeautiful
As is everything from the citizenry, this basket is so beautiful and so well made. I use it as a laundry basket(moving over clothes to another basket when I do laundry ) and it is such a beautiful piece to the bedroom, so that the laundry can blend in as more like a decor piece than laundry. I highly recommend, would also be lovely for extra throw blankets in a living room.
