Handwoven in Ninh Binh along Vietnam's Red River Delta, this lidded seagrass basket is shaped by hand, strand by strand. Named after the moon — for the quality of light it carries: unhurried, diffused & beautiful.. A quiet place to keep what matters, built to soften and deepen with time.

Please Note
Each basket is individually handwoven from natural water hyacinth by skilled artisans. Because of the handmade process and the unique characteristics of natural fibres, slight variations in colour, weave, shape, and facial details are part of what makes every piece one of a kind.

Story

The Lune is a large lidded seagrass basket in soft blue and cream. Named after the moon — for the quality of light it carries: unhurried, diffused, consistently beautiful.

Made in Ninh Binh province, one of Vietnam's most celebrated craft villages, where generations of artisans have passed the same weaving techniques from hand to hand.

The seagrass begins in the sedge fields of Northern Vietnam, cut twice a year — in May and October — at the exact point of maturity, then sun-dried over several days with no chemical treatment. No two baskets are ever quite the same.

Large enough for blankets, nursery items, or the beautiful everyday accumulation of a well-lived room. The lid sits flush. Use it every day.

Care Instructions

A seagrass basket is meant to be lived with, not admired from a distance.

They're built to hold what a day accumulates — laundry, toys, throws — and to look better for it. With regular use, the natural tone deepens into a soft patina, the quiet mark of a piece well-loved.

  • Wipe clean with a dry or barely damp cloth. Do not saturate with water.
  • Keep away from prolonged moisture or direct rain.
  • Avoid sustained direct sunlight for extended periods — this may fade the natural colour over time.
  • If the basket loses its shape, lightly dampen the exterior and reshape by hand. Leave to dry in position.

Cared for this way, a Palme & House piece is built to stay in your home for years to come.

01 / The Craft

Handcrafted Artistry

Handcrafted Artistry

The Lune follows the same weaving process as The Mai — seagrass harvested from the tidal flats of Ninh Bình, sun-dried, and woven by hand over 12 hours or more. The blue colour is applied to the fibre before weaving using a natural dye process, which gives each basket its characteristic variation in tone across the surface.

The lid is woven and fitted separately. It does not use a mechanism — it sits flush because the weaver has made it that way.

02 / The Materials

Organic Materials

Organic Materials

Seagrass is a coastal grass native to the tidal flats and salt marshes of North-Central Vietnam. It is harvested seasonally, dried naturally in the sea wind, and used without bleaching or chemical treatment. The resulting fibre is strong, flexible, and slightly aromatic — a quality of the raw material that fades with time and use.

The Lune in Your Home
